Hey mate any update on this rifle. I am also looking to a get a 300 PRC Howa like yours.

You should have kept it to what is comercially available in NZ. And put them into a Rifle action size. 7SAUM and 7WSM(6,8 Western) 7-08 in short actions, 280AI, 28 Nosler, 7WBY and 7PRC in long 3.34" action and 7RUM and 7STW in a 3.8" mag action. I personally would choose a 7RM(Because it's so available world wide) in a 3.8" Mag Action to seat long bullets. No need for fast twist barrel (1 in 9 perfect)as the heavy bullets would be from 160 to 175Grns(Max 180 grns)

Nice rifle I’m working with Target Dynamics on a 7prc build at the moment same stock :)

Awesome stuff! This was really useful.

I've got 8 Savage rifles, and they are all great. Amazing bang for the bucks.

Great info. What breed are the down booties?

That’s a schmick looking set up and the 284 is such an underrated cartridge. It didn’t get a great start in life because it was originally put in lever actions but with the rebated rim and big case capacity it’s such a sleeper. Nearly built one myself but got a magnum action given to me so heading down the 7 PRC rabbit hole. Great vid, thanks for putting it together.

I thought the old blue kathmandu pack would make an appearance haha.

Mean. Thanks for the review. You should have a look at Southern Lite Packs if your thinking of dyneema and hunting. I prefer a pack with a meat shelf, so much more functional. The Exo's compress down to the range of bag sizes you have through compression straps. Can't understand the hammock- so much gear and weight that a tent would adequately cover - you'd need less puffer gear too. Love the Macpac vest, just so functional. I had a Hilleberg Soulo so understand your reluctance to use a light tent (10d is too light) in the tops! Just a thought for all your electronics at night. I made up a bag using a car windscreen foil and foil tape, put in a hand warmer at night, and shove all my batteries, electronics in there, instead of in my puffer and quilt. To save some coin, buy Granola, add milk powder, nuts and cranberry - store in a zip lok bag. That collapsible cup is a meal serve size, so just add water, super yum. Like your cooker set up. I can't ditch my Jetboil Stash pot as it boils in half the time over a standard pot/cup - so more efficient on gas on longer trips. Matt @ MTN Gear is the man. Bring a small warehouse pan (remove the handle) and vacuum sealed real home made food - start frozen and your good, heavier but hey. Oh yeah. Worth it. Last point - your still missing a hunting dog. Go on....

Hey bro is the chassis drilled and tapped to add a decent bag rider on the butstock? Also what’s the shortest suppressed barrel you could run? 17”?

Hey mate what brand are the puffer shoes and pants?

Sorry man, was trying to enjoy your presentation but I pulled the pin at 2min 40. That back ground sound ( I could not call that music) was no good for me. It may be after 28 yrs Regular Army (Infantry) but mate, that sound was off putting sorry. Take care

Considered going to the arca MTN bipod? Weight difference in not adding the pic rail would mean total weights pretty much the same but you can slide the bipod way down the rifle when transporting and have a cleaner underside for shooting from a pack etc.

OMG please stop the music, also there is nothing wrong with the barrel nut system. I.M.O.

Enjoyed the video but the music was distracting. Please no music next time. thanks

That gun is a Rig! The DPT muzzle break looks like a game changer too!

AWSOME TRIP AND VIEW BROTHER , HAVNT NEVER GOING UP THERE BUT WILL GIVE A TRY ... GOD BLESS

👌

Got a Tikka T3 in this caliber last week and took it to the range yesterday. It was used..threaded bbl with nothing on the threads (for now). Light weight rifle..recoil lighter than my 30’06. Sub MOA with first 3 shots after zeroing.

284Win surely is the parent case of the 6.5-284? Not the other way around? 284 is in the name even?

Looks like a great place for some crampons. What great epic country.

Very nice!

Right on! Nice

Very cool
