    Finally got my 7PRC together

    @nickw beautiful gun, please let us know how it shoots with your load development. @Ohiohuntr let me know what load you settle on as I’ll start compiling what others are loading and consider those recipes for my own.

    Finally got my 7PRC together

    Beautiful gun @Ohiohuntr ! I need to get my hands on a suppressor soon. I did take my gun out again the other day and it is starting to tighten up. Maybe some barrel seasoning/break in lol. Who knows, will most likely just end up reloading and trying for bug hole type accuracy.

    Finally got my 7PRC together

    @Cheeseburger1976 thank you for the kind words. I know the struggle is real with scope selection when it comes to magnification, ffp, and hunting. I’m very happy with the NX8 glass and build quality. Will have to see how it works hunting this year. @cdq8047 thank you for the tips brother. I...

    Finally got my 7PRC together

    Well I finally got my 7PRC done. Bighorn Origin, Area 419 rings and arca, Manners EH1-A stock in scorched earth high gloss (so damn beautiful, the pic doesn’t do it justice), Nightforce NX8, Proof Research 24” barrel, SRS titanium brake, and good ol’Atlas Cal. It comes together fully chonky at...

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    Damn, that stinks. Sorry to hear that. I am praying that my EH1-A comes perfect so I don’t have to send it back when it eventually comes.

    Who is the Eurooptic rep here

    As a local, I’ve enjoyed going to Euro since the broad street days lol. Their new showroom is absolutely amazing and I love it. I spend time and money there as often as I can lol. I am spoiled living only 10 min away.

    Awesome @J. W. I really dig the bird and trout knife. The embossing on the leather is awesome as well.

    7prc build

    Just a word of caution on that with Origin Long Actions, the long action hunter mags won’t work. It’s even stated in Hawkins site. Out of curiosity I bought a couple of the hunter mags on sale just to see if they really weren’t compatible, and sure enough it’s true. The mag cannot seat into the...

    Stainless vs Carbon rifles

    General rule of thumb for me, stainless actions. It’s just a maintenance thing. I feel more secure with stainless actions and fear rust less with them in the elements. Mind you I care for all my gear but really don’t see a downside to stainless in my uses. Certainly feel no difference in...

    7prc build

    Hey there. I am also building a 7prc on an origin action (left-handed however), with a proof 24” barrel, and a trigger tech trigger lol. I paid a couple of weeks ago for my Manners Stock which will be a lefty EH1-A. I went with their long action mini chassis (not the M5) as I wanted to use a DBM...

    Hunting knives

    Fallkniven HK9 has been my go to hunting knife for the past 9 years. This one was a factory blem that honestly you can’t even tell (the one inlay logo on the grip isn’t perfect). It was $170 when I bought it. I know they are more expensive now. It sharpens to a razor edge and holds it through...

    Glock 17 grip...thumb presses on mag release causing failure to chamber round

    I am sorry to question this, but are you gripping your gun like a revolver? Or like the old cup and saucer method? I’m simply unsure how a thumbs forward modern grip could possible engage the mag release. Could you maybe post a picture so we could see?

    Manners Composite Stocks Estimated Lead Times

    That’s the strategy I’ve always used when dealing with customer service; call, explain, get the rep’s email, send the photos. Works pretty well usually. I’ve not had to do that with manners, but I assume it would be successful there as well.
