Best manufacturer for 300 prc

[Chocolatehorns223]

My buddy is left handed and left eye dominant, trying to help him out. We’ve looked at a few, Christensen and fierce. Thanks for the help.

Both have had QC issues at least in the past. There is a thread here on Rokslide about a Fierce being sent to customer that had no rifeling. Maybe someone will link it; it makes for interesting reading. I have not kept up with either company.

I am on my 2nd 300 PRC from Christensen Arms. Yes, the first one (Mesa) had to be sent back for a re-barrel. When got it back, it shot 3/4 moa. My 2nd 300 PRC (Ridgeline FFT) shoots the same right out of the box or better. It depends how I'm shooting that day.

I have two PRC Brownings, both are tits.

A lighter trigger spring ($15) and you're off to the races.

Thread 'Fierce Firearms Disaster'

Long read but could save you some money and headache.

A few years ago we placed an order through a local Fierce distributor for 4 rifles. A Fury in 28 Nosler, a Fury in .300wm, a Carbon Fury in 6.5 PRC, and a Carbon Edge in .300 PRC. Out of those rifles the Carbon Edge was the only one to shoot well and show up as advertised.

The 28 Nosler. After the second shot through the gun, with factory ammo stated by Fierce to shoot awesome, the bolt locked up and we had to ship it back to Fierce to get it open. They sent the rifle back with a clean bill of health. On arrival we noticed that every...

Some people swear by Chevy, others Ford. Like my Dad used to say, there's a reason they make 31 flavors of ice cream. So for what it's worth, I can only share experience with 300 PRC I have:

Christiansen Arms MPR: Good. Not great for me, around 1¼ groups, but good enough.
Fierce Carbon Rage: Better. Inch to ¾, so full confidence in the field.
Custom: Best. Built with Terminus Kratos, folding MDT carbon, diamond trigger, proof carbon barrel. One of only three genuine tack drivers in inventory (the others being a couple Sauer & Sohn 6.5 PRC).

Definetly not Fierce.

Christensen is debatable.

If you want a R700 platform then Seekins.

Me personally I would build off a Howa action, likely buy a 300prc and re barrel it immediately.

Honestly you can take a dozen rifles made by the same manufacturer and they will all shoot a little different to some extent.

I don't think that the caliber makes any difference as to which manufacturer may be better.
