Seems their motto is shoot short and practice long just in case the perfect opportunity presents itself. This is the exact same reasoning I had behind the 6.5 300 RCM/EXTREME, PT&G reamer, that I did in 2009 and I am glad to see that Hornady saw fit to legitimize the cartridge with some slight changes. As I said before I can use their 6.5 PRC FL dies to Shoulder Bump my cartridge.
