    Lightweight Rifle Build

    I have been looking at two different builds for later this year. I’m wanting to build a lighter braked 6mm creed for my daughters to shoot when ready & a 6.5 prc. Once I started pricing everything like I wanted I was at roughly $3200. For that price I can have another Ridgeline or a Seekins...

    Berger 153.5 Hybrid bullets for Hunting

    I bought both the 156’s & the 153.5’s and my gun didn’t like the 156’s at all. On the other hand it absolutely loved the 153.5’s. I sold my 6.5 prc to a fellow member here but I will be getting another one.

    TARGET BULLETS ARE NOT HUNTING BULLETS!

    Your rifle looks pretty sweet. On another note how do you like your jacket? I just got that exact one.

    7prc or 6.8 west?

    I went to my lgs yesterday & ended leaving with another ridgeline. Based on what’s on the Christensen site it’s kinda unique since it’s not shown as even an option. It’s a 24” 7 PRC tan stock w/a black receiver & muzzle brake & came with a rail.

    Hunting scope recommendations

    I’ve looked at a few scopes & I think whichever 7 flavor I get it will have the vx6 3x18x50 or the 4x24x52.

    Berger 153.5 Hybrid bullets for Hunting

    Everything I’ve tried has been loaded by companies. I have everything to load for it but just had so many family issues since buying it I haven’t the time or want to fool with it. I have 142 ablr & 156’s loaded by North American ammunition using ADG brass & the 153.5 Berger from copper using...

    Hunting scope recommendations

    That’s the scope I have on my 6.5 PRC. I have a Leica ER5 4x20x50. I used the vx5 & the Leica wed night looking at deer @ about 200 yards just past legal shooting. I also used them both @ max power @ roughly 890 yards on thanksgiving day then backed the Leica down to 16 & the left the vx5 on...

    Berger 153.5 Hybrid bullets for Hunting

    I know it’s an over a year n half old thread but did anyone tries these on game during the 22 season? I have two boxes loaded from Copper Creek for my 6.5 prc ridgeline that group better than anything I’ve tried so far.

    Seekins ph2 opinions

    I’ve been wanting a ph2 for awhile but a new but it just hasn’t been in the cards. I also have a CA Ridgeline in 6.5 PRC that I upgraded the stock on. I might sell my ridgeline & get a ph2. Just gotta decide on 6.5 prc or 7 mm rem mag,

    Nightforce vs Leupold

    I am in a similar situation. I’m wanting to upgrade my vx5 on my ridgeline 6.5 prc. I’ve looked @ the tenmile, shv & nxs as well as vx6 hd. The weight is only reason I hadn’t already bought the nf. I owned a shv a few years ago with the IHR ( I believe it was called). I hate they did away with...

    Weatherby ammo

    Anyone tried Weatherby’s 6.5 PRC ammo? Didn’t even know they offered it but their drop #s seem a little off to me. They offer a 6.5 prc w/156 Bergers 2850 fps @ the muzzle but they’re showing a 27.1”drop @ 500 yards. Copper creak shows that 156 Berger @ 2860 fps @ the muzzle & dropping 42.4” @...
