    300 WSM or 300 PRC build ideas

    The 300 WSM is solid but I'd go no less than a 22" barrel. Since you have a 300 WM, I'd go with a 7mm PRC, hard to beat and versatile. If you are planning to go with a Manners stock, it will be next year before you see it. McMillan is about 60 days out from order date. You can go the DIY...

    7mm PRC Build with a 20" Barrel - Elk Rifle for 2024 - Advice?

    I think the 6.8 Western will slowly die off but the PRC will continue to grow with factory ammo offerings.

    Suppressor needed

    I bought three over a period of a couple of years, need one more for this build. I'm very happy with the ones I have, check all of the boxes.

    Suppressor needed

    I've been buying the Harvester EVO suppressor for around $550, it's 10.8 oz, 6.23" long. Not full-auto rated but that's fine for a hunting rifle. However, it has since been discontinued and I'm looking for something similar in the same $/weight/length range. Recommendations appreciated, thanks!

    5 inch suppressor for long action or magnum cartridges?

    I have three EVOs, they are great! Just used one in Kansas last week.

    20 Inch 7MM PRC Unsuppressed?

    You'd be better off with a 7mm-08

    7 mag or is PRC actually better?

    I used my 7 PRC for the first time this year, shot a doe at 115 yards, bullet (175 ELDX) performed as expected. I really like the PRC but mostly think it's overkill for most deer at under 200 yards. The 7mm RM is a better fit with bullets in the 140-160 range. The PRC shines in open country...

    McMillan A-3, likes, dislikes?

    I've got the Game Scout (similar to the GW) on a Win 70 and I like it. Having gone to a vertical grip on most of my rifles, the rifles with what I call traditional/open-grip, feel odd these days. I compare them to shotgun grips, good for instinctive pointing and fast shooting but not so great...
