    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Welcome! I did handle the element a few times. Nice rifle, but couldn’t justify spending over 2x over the Mesa. I also prefer the flush hinged floor plate and non spiral fluted barrel you get with the Mesa.

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Final follow up with a twist... After a half dozen range sessions and contemplation, I decided to sell the PH2. Like I mentioned above, it's a great rifle. Accurate, ergonomic, repeatable performance. A stellar company to boot. It boiled down to my preference and real-world use case. The...

    Sold Seekins PH2 6.5 PRC (like new)

    Up for sale is a Seekins PH2 in 6.5 PRC. Mountain shadow camo. 57 rounds have been fired and the rifle has been cleaned and looks like new condition. Getting sub MOA with the four factory rounds used (ELDM/X, Accubond 140, and Berger 156) Best groups are < 1/2" with the Berger 156. Love...

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    A little follow up report: I setup the rifle and have been to the range a handful of times. I've run Hornady ELD-M, ELD-X, Nosler Accubonds, and Berger 156 (all factory.) I was able to get MOA with all rounds, but the best groups were with the Bergers and Accubonds and were approximately .5"...

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    It gets better with time. I've yet to make it to the range, but after taking it home, cleaning, and working the bolt, it has smoothed out. Like a fine wine, I imagine it gets better with age.

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Glad to hear it's a shooter! That's the same setup I went with, but in 6.5 PRC. I'm still waiting on the Seekins rings to arrive, but when they do I plan to get it setup and head to the range.

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Appreciate the feedback. It's certainly the contrarian scope choice, based on what others have shared. I've personally been pleased with Leupold after using their scopes the past ~20 years. Time will tell if the VX-5 tracks and holds zero. I'm ok with being wrong, but haven't personally...

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Update: I decided on the Seekins PH2, topped with the Leupold VX5 Firedot, and Seekins Low Rings. Will give a more thorough review and share more thoughts once I get everything put together and sighted in.

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Interesting perspective and makes sense - prioritizing tracking over glass clarity. It sounds like folks on here gravitate toward NF and trijicon due to their tracking. I'll give their lighter weight scope offerings another look. Thanks for the feedback.

    Right on. No argument there.

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Appreciate the insight @PredatorSlayer and you are right, it's not much of a weight difference. Also, nice shooting! Yes, nothing like putting a $700 stock on a $1700 rifle haha! @wind gypsy Thanks for the info on the Zeiss and comparison of Christensen vs. Zeiss @harvey_nw

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Right on. I should have specified, I'm looking for a 3-15 magnification range. What I've noticed is that the NF beefs up to 30oz in that mag range.

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Thank you for the insight. I've heard nothing but good things about NF and Trijicon Tenmile and Credo. That said, the extra weight of the NF is not something I'm looking for on a mountain rifle and I haven't been able to handle a Trijicon and am not willing to roll the dice (in terms of if I...

    Rifle Setup: Christensen Ridgeline vs. Seekins PH2

    Circling back on this. I was able to handle the S20 at Sportsman's. Nice gun, but not for me. Configuration of the stock, action, and weight were all not to my liking. I'm more partial to traditional stocks and have hunted with Remington 700 mountain rifle the past 6 seasons. I think this is...

    Thank you. I was tempted to pick up an elk tag, but really want to focus on mule deer.

    Thank you for the tip. I have one marked on my map as an area to avoid. Will keep my eyes peeled for others as I continue to scout. Any other tips/ideas? (feel free to message me if you don't want to share publicly)
