Perfect timing in an ammo shortage to need something like this, but drew a national park hunt and am in need of lead free ammo within 6 weeks. I do not reload, although it looks like I should.



My rifle is a 6.5 PRC with 22" barrel with 1/8 twist. I am also running a suppressor. What do yall recommend, and do you have any leads on where I can find some? I need at least 2 boxes.

thanks!!!

Unknown Munitions, it’s pricy but they load the 127gr Barnes LRX.


Give them a call and see if they can get you something in time for your hunt.
 
I tried some of the Unknown 127LRX house loads my MPR. Good accuracy (<1moa for 2x 3-shot groups) and 3100fps out of a brand new 24” barrel that hadn’t sped up yet
 
Thanks guys. I also came across Choice Ammo. I have an email out to them as well. The price is kinda steep at $87/box. It would be nice to get this ammo and just stick with it for all shooting, if I am paying for a custom load. https://choiceammunition.com/product-category/6-5-prc/

I had used Dallas Reloads in the past for my subsonic 308 ammo. It seemed to work well.
