However, I’ll admit that I was a bit surprised to see guys using 22 calibers at this level. 308 and not to exceed 3,200 fps.” The PRS has similar rules but doesn’t limit caliber on the smaller end. The NRL rules allow a rifle of “any caliber between. Two guys in the NRL’s top 50 said they were using a 22 caliber, and that’s the first year that’s popped up among top shooters.At least one of the top 10 guys in each league said they used a 6.5mm, so rest assured a good shooter can still be competitive with them.While the 6mm dominates the chart above, there are a couple of things worth noting: The chart legend itemizes the league and ranks each color represents, but basically the darker the color, the higher up the shooters placed. The green colors represents the top shooters in the NRL, where the darkest green is the top 10, medium green is 11-25, and light green are the shooters who’s season rank landed from 26th to 50th. For example, black indicates shooters who finished in the top 10 in the PRS, the darkest blue is people who finished 11-25 in the PRS, and the lighter the blue, the further out they finished in overall standings. On the chart above, the various colors represent where a shooter landed in terms of rank. 7 out of 8 of these top shooters use a 6mm cartridge.
I can remember a time when there was a battle between which caliber was most popular: 6mm or 6.5mm? That battle appears to be decisively won at this point, because 6mm bullets clearly dominate precision rifle competitions. These guys represent the best precision rifle shooters in the country, and over the next several posts I’ll be publishing the results. Welcome to “What The Pros Use” 2018 Edition! I recently surveyed the top ranked shooters in both the Precision Rifle Series (PRS) and the National Rifle League (NRL) to learn what gear they’re running in long range rifle matches.
