Still waiting on element hunter ordered in early January. Was told late February early March, then end of April early May. It'll get here when it gets here I guess...lol

You need another rifle.I don’t need a new rifle, but could be easily swayed haha.
Ah I’m jealous, beautiful rifle! Mine’s on the way to my FFL and then it’ll spend 10 days in jail (California).After a 3 months impatient giddiness my ph3 has finally arrived. Fit and finish looks pretty good, I didnt see anything glaringly obvious in the 20 minutes or so Iwas fondling it. The bolt is super smooth, the trigger is nice but i have a triggertech 2 stage special waiting for it in the safe and this one will be going into my Bergara Wilderness Sierra. It weighs right at 9lbs in it's current configuration according to my digital bathroom scale. I did feel a little bit cramped with the length of pull and will have to buy the shims. Overall, very happy with it so far indont know when I will get to shoot it. Now on the hunt for what can will be put on this thing. View attachment 882814
That's sucks that it has to sit in jail for 10 days, I thought there was only a waiting period for handguns.Ah I’m jealous, beautiful rifle! Mine’s on the way to my FFL and then it’ll spend 10 days in jail (California).
What are you thinking of putting on it? I’ve got a used atlas bipod I’m going to throw on it for the lead up to hunting season, and then maybe snag a hatch/spartan/tricer for elk season.
Let us know how it shoots! I’m very curious to hear about accuracy.
California is wild bro. I’d be long gone if my parents didn’t live here. We’ve got a buffet of 2A infringement, including a suppressor ban. You know you’re off the deep end when your gun regulations are more strict than most European countries.That's sucks that it has to sit in jail for 10 days, I thought there was only a waiting period for handguns.
I probably wont get it to the range for a couple weeks, I picked up some of these goodies last weekend since it was on sale. I hoping the 200gr shoots well, that's what I plan on using for elk season. I currently shoot off a monopod and haven't jumped in to the bipolar pond yet. Looking at the cat JL or the Vent 1 for a can maybe. My ffl mentioned I should check out the Scythe and I'm curious about the new can Ruger put out with Dead Air.
This will be my main elk gun, shooting elk the main reason I bought it; I thought the 308 i was using was adequate but not ideal. I was deciding between picking up an element on the used market or the Begara Crest Carbon, but then Seekins dropped the ph3 at shot show and it made my decision pretty easy. Planning on breaking it on on some pigs in South TX before my elk hunt this year.California is wild bro. I’d be long gone if my parents didn’t live here.

In any case, this PH3 is also going to be my main general purpose Elk gun. Really excited to put this gun to work in Colorado this fall.
The demand is massive right now. At EuroOptic alone, almost every SKU has hundreds of backorders and there’s like 12+ different rifles/configurations. And EuroOptic is one of like 50+ distributors.I ordered the Havak Element M3 in urban shadow 7 PRC on April 1st, I talked to Euro last week with no answers when they expect them. I talked to Seekins today and was basically told maybe another month or 2 from now but nothing concrete. Getting a little irritated because even Seekins can't tell when they will ship even though they are the producers. I guess I will have to muster up some patience.
A buddy and I both ordered one at sheep show. I heard those same ESDs, but was most recently told “we will ship as soon as we can” lol.Still waiting on element hunter ordered in early January.
