What's the barrel contour on that PRC? I'm curious what it's going to weigh with a 28" barrel? Might get a little heavy to be lugging around. Sounds like both are super nice rigs though.
Heavy palma 1-7.5 twist. Most of my stands are inclosed tho with shooting rest.What's the barrel contour on that PRC? I'm curious what it's going to weigh with a 28" barrel? Might get a little heavy to be lugging around. Sounds like both are super nice rigs though.
Im new to the LRS so please be kind. I ordered 2 guns one 300 norma mag and one 6.5 PRC for hunting and ringing steel. Shouldnt be to much longer my 300 should be getting finshed and then around six month's on the 6.5.
30" HP blanks from Krieger run about 6.5 lbs unchambered. You're probably going to have a 5.5-6lb 28" chambered barrel when they're done with chamber and cutting to 28". If it's being fluted that will reduce the weight a tad also. Nice barrel but heavy for sure. You may want to do a weight total of all your components including the potential optic, mounts, bipod, bottom metal, stock, action, magazine loaded, etc.. just so your clear on what your getting. If it's primary function will be the range and hunting from a blind you'll be fine but based on what I see it's going to be a super nice but heavy rig. Should be a shooter for sure. Good luck.Heavy palma 1-7.5 twist. Most of my stands are inclosed tho with shooting rest.

My recommendation is go with the same scope for both guns. That way you are a master with the scope.May go kahles NF or something different on the 6.5 not sure yet
