Seekins PH3 6.5 PRC 20” Woodland Shadow

Picked her up this week and got it fully setup today!

Gun weight empty w/ unloaded mag: 7.2#s
Finished build weight: 9.5#s

Scope: Trijicon Credo HX 4-16x50 MOA
Suppressor: TBAC Ultra 7 (6.5)
Rings: Seekins 30mm Low

I couldn’t be happier with this gun so far. The action on the PH3 is a huge upgrade over the previous version. Very smooth, no binding, tight tolerances. 60° bolt throw is great as well. The stock is the same as before, with the exception of the adjustable cheek piece. Some will say ‘I don’t need that’, which I won’t argue, and I would typically never buy a gun with that as an option. I did end up clicking it up one notch to help fine tune my cheek weld - so I’m absolutely not complaining about that.

I have an arca rail on order to add to the bottom, having that built in rail system is really sweet. The chassis system is also sweet.

I haven’t had a chance to play with the removable bolt head and barrel swap system, but I’m sure that won’t be too difficult.

Now it’s time to go shoot it!

Will update this post with groups and velocities.

Real question is how’s it shoot?

Real question is how’s it shoot?

This was just initial setup and quick review. I know there are a lot of eager people waiting for them, just wanted to get some real world info out there. I have not shot it yet, I am going tomorrow morning. I will post updates, as I noted in the post.

Should shoot just as good as any other Seekins - looking forward to the report. I had just bought an Element 6.5 PRC last summer, so not sure I’ll get rid of it, but these new PH3s, Elements, etc all sound awesome.

I’m seeing this and thinking my current element is going to be hitting the market. These have about everything you could ask for. Probably going ph3 vs another element though.

Do you mind me asking where you ordered from? If you used euro optic, where in line were you? I hope mine looks half as good as yours does!

I got it through Hells Caynon Armory. I actually had one back ordered through Euro, but this guy got me one faster. I cancelled my back order from Euro, so maybe you jumped up a spot!

I’m a different color/caliber, but is refreshing they are hitting the streets!

I’ve got a 6.5prc on the way from Hells Canyon also! Nice rifle
