Ruger RPR 6.5 bone stock, spuhr and SB PMll... what are your suggestions on case factory ammo between Prime and Desert tech in thus all factory platform guys? Thanks in advance
- Thread starter Noles77
- Start date
In 140 grain also ( im chasing kids and typing)
I have, i kinda cheated and didnt group and went straight to 800 but i was kinda looking into ammo by the case and the best value? The ELD did do really well at 800 though i just didnt group at 100
It shoots desert tech pretty solid i guess im just looking for broad spectrum knowledge on the ammo. Ive seen in Franks vids a few times that DT seems to shoot a tad tighter than prime but its only for paper punching and working on the fundamentals
The reason for the ammo that is! As cheap and accurate as i can
My .308 rem 700 eats prime but i guess i need to just eat the caje and buy a box of each and group them! I have a class mid may and need ammo is the reason for the season as far as the question goes
Been very happy with prime
Check out Eagle Eye Precision.
Their stuff shot great out of my 308. I can't say how their 6.5 is but I was getting 10-12 SD.

The #s favor the 140 ELDM, but the RPR I had shot 120 AMAX very accurately, at the expense of longer range.
It didn't group 140 AMAX or the ELD. Each gun/barrel is different

I'm a newbie shooter with less than 100 rounds down range. I have been shooting this stuff:

And it's doing this at 100 yards:
So until I get experience and start loading my own this Winter I'm sticking with the Hornady 140 gr. ELD Match ammunition and keep the brass to reload.

VooDoo, nice shooting. You're off to a great start. Try switching to 5 round groups....you'll get a better idea of your abilities and see improvement more as you progress.
+1 for Hornady 140 ELD match. Haven’t seen a reason to try anything else
Savage 10 FCP-SR in 6.5 CM - 24" barrel, Vortex Crossfire II 6-24X50 scope, Atlas bipod. My next shooting session I'll have lost the muzzle brake so we'll see how it shoots without that.
