I don’t understand the obsession with wanting to hit an animal past 500 yds. Or even 300. Is it really ethical past 500? It’s not target shooting. Cool rig though.
When you can accurately place a shot with adequate knockdown power for a given animal out to these longer distances should the opportunity present itself, it is completely ethical, IMO of course. As far as the obsession goes, that’s harder to explain without experiencing it yourself. It’s a skill set I love being able to utilize.
Dude, some of these guys are shooting a sub-minute out at 1100 yards. If your consistent like that, 800 yards = 8 inch group or less, which is conceivable and I would argue it's no more or less ethical than shooting an animal at 80 yards with a bow. Personally, I am not that good and wouldn't shoot past 400 rifle hunting or 40 yards with a bow. What is ethical is often subjective.
Where in Montana? I just got my 300 prc out to 2100 yards.
This has inspired my next rifle lol, any chance we can get an update video on this? Also what barrel length did you go with on the 300prc?
Nvmd on length I saw your comment below, but I'd still love to see an update on this setup and how it worked for you.
Is build complete yet? What was your end weight before optic if you don’t mind my asking…
Update?
What camo does McMillan call that? Looks sweet.
Apparently McMillan calls it a U-10 now 🤦🏻♂️
How long is your barrel
Vortex AMG
That barrel looks like pretty short. Turn that prc into your 308 😂
What action length is the 300 prc is it a normal long action or is it a magnum action?
Long action
Total weight on that stock?
How longs your barrel?
20” so I’m running hand loaded 190gr bullets for velocity’s sake.
Awfully short barrel for the 300 prc.

It's not an obsession - it's an opportunity if you've properly prepared for it.
@@thebleeb1681 fair enough.
