So I built myself a 6.5 prc

[Bcg new zealand]

This is the result off my first attempt to build myself a custom prc style rifle.
Bergara b14 action (300 win mag)
Custom made 26” stainless 5r barrel.
Timney trigger
Mdt lss chassis
20 moa rail with Burris xtr rings and roped off with a leupold vx3lpr 6.5x20 for now.
I’m really really excited how this rifle has come out esp since I did all the barrel fitting and chambering myself
The muzzle break is also my own design that I made

Here are the first groups out off it useing factory 147 eld-m match.
Average was 2946
Orange dot is 14mm

This group was 15 shoots fire forming more brass with 143 led-x precision hunter. Average volicity was 3100

And my best results are from a very quick load development off 9 rounds lol
Only 3 shoot groups today just for fun and see if I could fluke one but the 57.8 off h1000 with 147eld-m looks like it has a lot off potential.
3059 FPS and factory length coal

Thanks guys hopefully going to pop up to the range soon and verify the 57.8 load and get some better chronograph info. Fingers crossed it goes ok today

Looks good! It’s always a great feeling of accomplishment and more satisfaction doing it yourself.

Went and tested the 57.8 load again today. Not to bad a couple off tiny tweaks and it will be done
