Love the rifle and cartridge / ballistics. Hate the idea of .30 caliber rifle with enough ME to take down Bull Moose or Elk at 1,000 yards being used on Wood Chucks. That is just an awful waste of money, ballistic energy, barrel, and of course life of cute furry harmless creatures. I am a hunter, conservationist and firearms enthusiast ... I do not see the virtue in this or how this helps nature, 2nd Amend or anything sensible? My bet is that you didn't even hit the critters but instead blasted them off the ground with your misses.

There’s a few reasons why we shoot woodchucks. Number one they are destructive varmints and we are keeping them in check. We use overkill rifles/ calibers because shooting woodchucks is a good way to practice and validate the ballistics of said rifle. Might as well do two things at once. Third we do it because it’s fun. I can explain further but the message might not reach the top of that soapbox that you’re standing on

I would be interested to know how the animals are destructive. I have only seen wood chucks a few times out here in Montana. Thanks.

Yeah I live up in Orleans County New York pretty much all Farmland flat though but a lot of farmland good hunting

I went and got the same rifle but in .338 Lapua Magnum. I hope it'll be just as accurate as it is in .300 Win Mag and .300 PRC. So far the fit and finish is absolutely beautiful.

Love the triggers company business motto smart

300 PRC round impressive!

I love that rifle

Love it that a bug bullet 😎

Too bad you sold that rifle I still have mine and love it. Shooting 250 grain bullets with reloder 26 deadly accurate. I change the stock out for KRG chassis and EC tuner break very attractive rifle.

Going to take delivery on a Howa Precision 1500 rifle in 300 PRC. Just never too much when it comes to shooting high velocity rifles and handguns, in my opinion.

Name it the Destroyer!!! Holy cow!!

Nice Video! has the barrel problems been a common issue with these guns? Nice to know that they got you fixed up but is kind of a pain if you have to send the gun back lol

Bought same exact rifle. Having same exact issues. POI shifts. Rifle is at CA now. Also took pic inside barrel after 12 shots of Hornady Match. Found residue build up inside barrel at 6 o-clock goes at least half length of barrel. Can't even see rifling. Serial # begins with 20 so I'm guessing made in 2020? Have they improved their barrels since? Hoping they fix it first time.

Would a Burris full field 2 6.5x20x50 be a good long range scope for my 300 win mag Remington 700 bdl

Your comments on the rifle's feed problems sound familiar. I hear a lot of the same complaints from shooters of various new model rifles. Also people are complaining about ejectors that they don't throw the brass. They all say they are using factory loads.

4510fp of energy. Monster whistle pig ventilator. Keep it up.

I noticed you said it was only the 10th shot out of the new barrel. Did you not do their break in procedure with the new barrel? Only asking because I just got a Mesa and just now finishing up the 50 shot break.

I have sent my rilf iek this back to CA arms twice now. It will not shoot sub MOA and when it gtes warm (4th round) I can not hot an 8 in h go g at 200 yard's

Nice shootin'. That first shot at 7:50 seemed like much more than 220 yards when you zoom the camera back. I have a CA Ridgeline in 6.5 Creedmoor. It shoots 0.18" groups at 100 yards. It consistently shoots 0.36 MOA groups or better out to 350 yards with 143 Grain ELD-X HDY Precision Hunter.

Not an expert by any means. But I have always liked CCI for the most part. Mini Mags and Velocitors have been great for chucks.Good accuracy and knockdown. So CCI is my go to. I've had some pretty good luck with Federal and Remington as well for reliability. I will say that Winchester is probably the worst.

I noticed your rifle is magnaported. In your opinion what percentage did that procedure improve your shooting experience with your rifle?

That's the factory muzzle brake that CA provides with the rifles. It significantly decreases felt recoil, however I'm thinking of swapping it out for an area 419.

David Greenapple depending on how you build it yes $3000 sounds right. Just sounds like he’s had multiple issues with this rifle and heard other have had the same. Your limited by what they have decided to give you vs you deciding everything you want. I went high end rifle for a while and got tired of having limited choices in what I liked about it and hated. It’s worth the extra $1000 or so to get a way better rifle

ive been looking at buying a bolt action rifle in 300prc For the first time in my life ive been looking above the $500 price range to start out. Im thinking ill stick to my old way of thinking and just buy a cheap savage for the action and build from there. Was planning to just buy a $1500 rifle and be done but damn that price range is full of disappointment. Cheap ass savage axis out shoot and perform better than the rifles i keep seeing reviewed in that price range. A $1500 i should not have to fuck with much if anything at all in terms of being 1moa and feeding properly. wtf is going on in the firearms market. Also the 700 action is not even ok much less good. not sure why so many want to copy it when there are superior actions out there. Hell savage sucks but at least they are less than moa out of the box at any price point.

This is Eric. Not trying to sell to anyone or say one cartridge is better than another. But from what I know and what I've seen from this cartridge, I think it fills a niche that others do not. The 300 PRC is designed around the 200+ gr Hornady match bullets. The load Garrett is running is a 225gr ELD at 2850fps. So it is a high B.C 30cal bullet traveling at a respectable speed. On top of that, the velocity spreads seem to be very tight ( I can't remember exact numbers.) Plus the standard twist for 300 PRC is 1-8" to stabilize these long match bullets. If this cartridge goes more mainstream, the components and ammo will become more available and cheaper. So we will see.

That's a good sign for the cartridge. The downfall of most new hot cartridges is only having expensive rifles chambered in it.

At least you know this is the most humane way to kill them 🤣🤣
