Long-time lurker, first-time poster. Thanks to the forums...getting back into hunting after 20 years out. Bought a 28 Nosler last year (thanks for all the info posted here). Awesome gun, just a little heavy.
I'm heading to my first elk hunt this October, and I'm looking for something a little lighter (and that can spend more time at the range than the 28 Nosler).
I'm liking these in 6.5 PRC:
1. Fierce Carbon Rival (decent price, good weight and specs, but I've read about reliability issues)
2. Springfield Waypoint (better price, higher weight, good reviews)
3. Seekins Havak Element (decent price, no QD, shorter barrel, light weight)
4. Cooper 52 (decent price, heavy, no QD)
Any advice or feedback on anything above...or should I be looking at something else? The Fierce is my favorite on paper, but some of the reviews on this site have me thinking twice.
Thanks!!!
