Is this true? Your 300 PRC has higher velocity than the 30 Nosler? If so, I'm curious how you achieved this. Also, how does the barrel life on your 300 PRC compare to the 30 N ? Do you recommend 24" or 26" inch barrel length barrels?

Has there ever been any long term durability testing with titanium actions and scope rail mounts to see how they hold up with high round counts?

Is there an option for a titanium bolt to lighten it even more? Is there any way to get your action under 16 ounces if possible?

Can a 1:9 twist rate shoot the 166gr Hammers efficiently in a 20" inch barrel for 300wsm? I'd like a 300wsm that can fire the 166gr Hammers and also 215gr ammo without buying multiple rifles.

In building a 7-300 PRC can you use the same action, bolt and magazines for 7 PRC, 300 PRC and 7-300 PRC in the same rifle and just swap out the barrel? The 7mm PRC's action requires a 0.535" long action magnum bolt face, will that work with the 300 PRC and 7-300 PRC? I ask because I'd like to...

That's a nice rifle.

Hi, I saw your post in 2021 about the "Tested out the NF ATACR 7-35x56 Enhanced" column you wrote with your 28 Nosler. I'm putting together a rifle build in 7mm PRC and looking for a scope and have some questions if you don't mind? Are there any scopes in the price range of the NF ATACR...

Nice! Is that chambered in 33XC or 37XC? Is this rifle light enough for a hunting rifle to carry or strictly benchrest?

What are the advantages and disadvantages between the 33XC vs the 338 Snipetac on... Better ballistics (velocity, energy, flatter shooting, less drop etc) Barrel life? Cost of ammo? Ae they both repeaters or single shots? Custom build (more expensive, easier or harder to obtain parts etc) ...

How is the Defiance Classic action been? Also, can you get in in black or blued steel to match the rifle?

Is the Defiance Classic action the best action for under $1000? Any other options out there for under $1000? I'm looking for a Long action for a 7mm PRC, 24" inch stainless steel barrel for a build. Or, should I go with a Bergara Premier action instead?

Hi, do you sell the barrel stocks and pre-thread and chamber the barrel or do I buy the barrel stock and send it to you? Also, how much would a stainless steel 24" inch barrel in 7mm PRC cost that is threaded and chambered on a Bergara Premier action? What would the wait time roughly be on...

After doing some more research I'm thinking of a XLR Element chassis with either the Howa 1500 or Tikka action chambered in 7mm PRC... One thing that was confusing was on XLR's website they only list the Howa 1500 in short action and not long action. Doesn't the 7mm PRC need a long action...

Ok, thank you. After doing some more research I'm going with the XLR Element chassis. I'm not sure about the aluminum or magnesium chassis with regards to long term durability, which material would hold up better in the long run?

Is it possible to build a 7mm PRC, Howa 1500 action with the XLR Atom chassis and a 24" to 26" inch barrel? I was thinking of a light weight hunting rifle under 10 pounds total.
