Ok So I've been rocking an RPR 6.5 creed now for about 3 years. This gun introduced me to long range (500+) shooting. I've had a chance to take it out to 1675 yards and I've found that IMO that's beyond what I'd consider reasonable range for this cartridge. At that distance my hit's were due to a extreme spread of a mere 25fps.
I am admittedly still a novice in the long range game and would love some good advise on my next venture. I've had a great time with the creedmoor and have had great success with it Hand loading to 1/4 moa accuracy and shooting 147 eldm's @2800 fps comfortably out to 1400 yards. So to reach out beyond I'm looking for a slick 300 bullet. I think the most practical thing would obviously be to just go with another RPR in a mag cartridge but I find myself yearning for a "nicer" rig. I've kid of been there done that with the ruger and think I'd like to go with something different. Am I dumb for it?
So What are my options in a 300PRC (I'm attracted to this cartridge because IMO it's destined to be a big creedmoor. Sweet spot of bulk, recoil, made for eld bullets etc.)
Price range under $3500 without glass.
One option I've seen is Masterpiece arms, but i'm unfamiliar with them.
