You do realize that these pros are paid to push the new product.
6.5 prc ammo is more expensive also
Feeds more reliably
Factory barrels with the appropriate twist rate and length for modern projectiles
Most importantly, more factory ammo at a lower price (once production ramps up)

Yes, you can do all this with hand loading and your custom blah blah blah $5000 setup. Not the point. Just like the creedmoor, they took the lessons learned from the past and made something better available to the public at a reasonable price.

Some of you guys will never understand that not everyone has the time/space/opportunity to reload and build custom guns.
