Not the regular what cartridge poll.

I voted for all 3 because I see them all as good options with the background given.

If hunting strictly solo, Id opt for either of the creedmoors. If a youll have someone to spot, no sweat taking the prc. Sorry, not much help ha!

ETA: if you don't use the 7prc for elk, I wonder why I'd own that rifle at all

Sounds like you already made your choice but just want some reassurance. Again, good luck.

7prc and get as close as you can. Shot placement is everything. Good luck!

Valid point, I built a 7 prc for elk hunting so I may just stick with that plan. I will just keep my max range within my limitations.

The lightest one. You’re gonna tote it way more than you’re gonna shoot it.

Really? Which matters most??? Wow

voted for #1 since I have a Havak Element in 7prc also ha!

If all 3 rifles have accurate loads with sufficient ballistics and terminal performance at his self imposed distance limitations of 500 yards, why would you not choose the one that is the lightest and or most comfortable to carry? Please explain.

Since you say you can shoot all 3 well, I don't see any reason for taking anything other than the 7 PRC since they seem to be shooting similar bullets.
