[QUOTE="Tommy Moffitt, post: 1738464, member: 111156"] I recently purchased the 300 PRC in a CA Ridgeline topped with the Vortex Razor HD AMG 6x24x50 glass. I’m following the Christensen Arms barrel break in procedure as published and shooting the factory Hornady 212 gr ELD-X ammo only. On my second trip to the range I shot this 3 round group at 100 yds with a front rest consisting of my rolled up hoodie and sweat pants. After letting the gun cool, using the Hornady 4DOF Ballistic Calculator app, I dialed in the dope for my first 500 yd shot ever and placed 2 rounds on the steel with ease! I followed those two shots up with a 700 yd attempt at a gopher silhouette and missed. I grew up shooting, hunting and hand loading and have done so for almost all of 50 years but never really owned a gun that I could consistently and accurately shoot more than 300 yds. The thing that I love about the Ridgeline and the 300 PRC is that I’m making these great shots with all off the shelf components and getting my dope using a cell phone app that makes it as simple as 1,2,3. I own guns in 7mm-08, .308 win, 300 WM and many others but this new one is as simple as point and click and it’s performance repeats itself every trip to the range.[ATTACH]154563[/ATTACH][ATTACH]154564[/ATTACH][ATTACH]154565[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
