That is a pretty shooting iron. I had to Google up the 7mm PRC. Interesting stuff.

Mostly, deer, pigs and the occasional elk.
It’s basically a modern take on the 7mm REM Mag that allows longer heavy for caliber bullets. I am shooting 175gr Hornady ELDX’s @ 3000FPS

Have you shot it yet? I'd not heard of the PRC, wonder if it kicks like a 7mm mag? Those can leave a scope mark pretty quick! I'll bet it's a tack driving sumbitch though from what I just read about it. They're cross marketing the barrels to 7mm mag owners. Smart!

Oh and it’s 8#10oz’s scoped with a 24” barrel

It’s actually supposed have less recoil than the 7mag so we will see. Plan on taking it out this weekend. I was pheasant hunting in KS a few weeks ago and they had a 2000 yard range, I was able to hit a 10”x10” 7 out of 10 times at 600 yards with my 6.5 PRC.

That is a beautiful rifle. I trust it will shoot as good as it looks.

Trav, would that thing shoot far enough to say, take down a balloon? Some crazy guy from downby Disneyworld wanted to know.

That same guy just sent me a text asking me to tell P-hole to bite him!
I have say why we wait for that ballon to go completely across the country before we shoot it down makes no sense.
