Episode description

We discuss the hot topic of caliber selection. When people learn that I am shooting 6.5 Creedmoor it catches many people's attention in the precision rifle competition community. While the 6.5 Creed is a wildly popular cartridge, it has become less popular among PRS/NRL competitors in favor of lower recoiling cases like the 6 Dasher, 6 BR, and 6 BRA. I personally have shot the 6 Dasher for several years and love the round. It allowed competitors to shoot the same BC bullet the same speed as a 6.5 creed or 6.5x47L with significantly less recoil. With the advent of 153-156 class of bullets from Berger and Hornady, the extra BC has made the 6.5s look more and more appealing. The question is the bang worth the buck?

We recorded this podcast on the drive home from the SAC Blue Ridge Rumble PRS match, that was held in Benge, Washington. We discuss the match and how we felt about it. It was a great match, with several unique stages that challenged everyone.
