    Seeking Recommendations for My Next Hunting Rifle

    Congratulations! That’s a good rule to follow, and glad you stuck to it. What season were you in CO? We hunt 3rd rifle every year and got hammered with snow this year, but what’s even weirder is that we hardly saw any sign the week following the snow. They just weren’t moving like they...

    Show me your MDT HNT26 Builds - 7 PRC?

    Not sure about weight difference, how’d this go?

    Show me your MDT HNT26 Builds - 7 PRC?

    I did not unfortunately. Had some bills and life stuff of course. I did purchase a Seekins PH2 in 6.5 PRC because it was discounted. I’ll likely do a 7 PRC build eventually.

    Terminal Ascent accuracy issues?

    Just kind of shocked I guess because the rifle has shot a few different rounds so accurately and I’ve read almost all positive reviews of the Terminal Ascent. But I agree! Especially since it likes the Noslers so much

    Terminal Ascent accuracy issues?

    Makes sense. I was just thinking because the TA is a copper shank and lead core that it may have something to do with the accuracy.

    Terminal Ascent accuracy issues?

    I picked up a box of Federal Terminal Ascent for my 6.5 PRC last week. I’m shooting a Seekins Havak PH2, and every bullet I’ve put through it so far (140 AB, 142 ABLR, and 147 ELD-M) has shot sub MOA, the rifle is much more capable than I am. Yesterday I went out to shoot the 130 grain Terminal...

    Tipped Fusion vs Terminal Ascent

    Makes sense! Gonna see if I can find some before my hunt next weekend and test it out. I typically don’t shoot beyond 400 so if I can’t find any I’m hoping the TA will shoot well. Appreciate the response.

    Tipped Fusion vs Terminal Ascent

    Mind sharing your reasoning? I know TA has less led, I prefer heavier bonded bullets if I can and I saw the Fusion Tipped is 140 grain, but curious why you’d take those over the TA.

    Tipped Fusion vs Terminal Ascent

    Would you say the same for 6.5 PRC? I just came across the tipped fusion and wasn’t aware of them until now. Have a box of TA to see how they shoot out of my Seekins PH2

    Rifle scopes you'd love to see Form test

    Agreed. Would love to see the Gen 2 review with the upgrades

    7mm PRC - Savage 110 Ultralight or Christensen Mesa?

    Agree with this. I have a 30+ year old Savage 110 in 7mm REM Mag that is a sub MOA shooter with cheap ammo. I now also own a Seekins PH2 in 6.5 PRC and couldn’t be happier.

    New 6.5 PRC - Factory ammo recommendations to try? Eld-x or Terminal Ascent?

    Curious what you decided on here

    Favorite 6.5 PRC bullet for elk?

    I've heard good things, might check them out. Seems reasonably priced too.

    Seeking Recommendations for My Next Hunting Rifle

    Sure thing. At $1849 + muzzle break you’ll be around $2k, 100% worth it. I’m shooting half MOA at 100 yards. Best of luck with your search.

    Seeking Recommendations for My Next Hunting Rifle

    I was super torn between the B14 Crest and a Seekins PH2, ultimately decided on Seekins and I'm very happy with it. That said, your 6.5 is plenty for elk at closer distances. But if you're set on buying a new rifle look at Seekins in 7 PRC.

    Favorite 6.5 PRC bullet for elk?

    Yeah that seems to be the theme

    Favorite 6.5 PRC bullet for elk?

    I read through this quite a bit the other night, definitely interesting to see how all the different bullets perform but I think you’re right. I have a feeling the ELD-M’s will shoot well but I’m gonna grab some Berger 156 to try out as well

    Favorite 6.5 PRC bullet for elk?

    Interesting that it didn’t separate, i guess that’s a good thing but surprising at that distance
