                Robert, what length barrel and twist rate would you recommend for a tier 2 in 6.5prc? I do not plan on using a can.

                  No can - I’d run 25-26” and get all the goodness out of it! 7.5 or 8 twist

                    I saw your 6.5prc AI was 1-7.5, but all your 6.5 PRC seem to be 1-8, so I went 1-8. Shouldni have considered 7.5?

                      Robert, do y'all have specific few cerakote colors y'all offer? Or is it all of their colors available? The choices are overwhelming.

                        No sir, pretty much just overwhelming

                          I had a feeling that was the case! Having a hard time deciding on stock and action finish now that you said y'all can't match that Mesa pattern.

                            So I did 7.5 specifically for the 150 SMK and also in anticipation of Berger releasing the 156 bullet which never happened. I don't know if it's ever going to actually happen?

                            My first 7.5 was a standard 4 groove and was really hard on the 150's and 147's. I was blowing up jackets pretty often. Muller created a modified land profile and the problem is now solved, but it took a while. Pretty cool to have 4-groove accuracy that's easy on jackets like a 5R.

                            I'm still running a couple of modified 7.5's and having good luck personally, but we ended up running a bunch of 8's while all of that was being worked out. Really did not see a downside to the 8's up to the 147 class bullets when it was all said and done.

                              I went with muller as you recommended, but never even thought to ask about groove profile !
