    140gr-147gr is the nominal weight most people have been using.
    Our 2 biggest sellers are the Hornady 140gr ELD-M and the 143gr ELD-X

    I have had really go luck with the Nosler RDF HPBT 130g with either H4350 or Hybrid 100v. Shooting out of a Savage 12FV with a 24" barrel.

    I dont shoot 6.5CM but do shoot a 260AI. My preference is for the lapua scenarL 136. Very consistent bullets. In all honesty most guys are shooting the berger 140 hybrids. I have an uncle who swears by swampworks 130s bullets. I've shot the hornady and they work well but check out an equipment list for the guys at the top. Most are slinging bergers or Sierra. Also f class and prs are different animals to "kit out" most f class shooters I know are really trying to buck the wing, most prs guys I know are more concerned with velocity and having something that shoots flat.

    I think it depends on the range. The lighter bullets such as 123 eld’s don’t give up anything to the 140’s out to about 800 yards because of the velocity increase.
