[QUOTE="Ranger260, post: 1933947, member: 24186"] I picked up a Seekins Precision Havak PH1 in 6.5 PRC last year and did not have much time to work up loads until recently. I started with factory 143 ELD-X and 147 ELD-M and was getting around 1/2" 3-shot groups at 100 yards. POI was pretty close to the same for each. I spoke with Seekins and they told me I should be doing better than that. I have about 100 rounds downrange and started doing some load development with the 147 ELD-M and RL-26. So I went out last weekend and found nodes at 53.0 gr (0.388") and 54.0 gr (0.399"). To top that off, my buddy shot a 0.232" group with factory 143 ELD-X Hornady Precision Hunter! I was considering selling the rifle, but looks like I gotta keep it ;) . I think the barrel is starting to "shoot in" nicely. I would like to try some 156 Bergers next, try some 5-shot groups, and test my loads at 300 yards. I think it's time I buy a chronograph. What kind of performance are you guys seeing from your Seekins rifles? [/QUOTE]
