A Backfire edition 7PRC rifle would be nice to buy! Make a deal for your custom rifle builder to allow us to buy that sweet design. Maybe offer the option of different Ceracote colors or patterns.
You really NEED to shoot some Seekins bolt guns. I sell guns PT and have shot all of the guns mentioned except the Fierce to this point. All Seekins I have shot to this point are legitimate .75 moa or better at 200m (the range we use for testing). Timney Elite Hunter triggers (set at 2.5 lbs from the factory), great quality barrels, absolute satisfaction accuracy guarantee (as well as complete warranty for ANYTHING on the rifle forever). I don't get the stocks feeling "cheap" at all. They are carbon composite, great palm swell and pretty stiff. Bonuses are 1) They build everything but the trigger in house 2) Everyone at Seekins is passionate about what they do and you actually get a person on the phone when you call. Customer service/support in this business is incredibly important and there is no other manufacturer I have dealt with on the same level. There are a couple of other manufacturers in the same price range that are popular (you KNOW who I'm talking about) that are HORRIBLE. For reference, there is not a single one of the salesmen in our shop (+-20) that doesn't own at least 1 Seekins rifle. I am currently waiting on my PH2.
I actually picked up a seekins this last December due to the salesman experience with his. Straight out of the box with shots 8-12 he had a group with less than a .2 of an inch spread. Even the largest groups were less than .5 using a 6.5 prc. Mine is super light (comparing to my old sendero) and looks to be fitted really well. Unfortunately I was impatient and picked up a 7 rem instead of the PRC but that'll likely be changed in the future. Btw their muzzle brakes are aggressive for lack of a better word. Update: Got mine flipped over to a 7 PRC and it shoots lights out and fits like a dream. I can not say enough good things about seekins.

@Backfire - Loved the video from the other day of head to head. Very fun and cool. Appreciate this one today.
@backfire First, I want to say that I've spent a ton of time over the last 3 weeks (a little time over the last year) researching longer range hunting rifles, and you have become my favorite source of information! Keep up the great work! While growing up in Western NY, I could only hunt with a shotgun, so limited experience with rifles. I have had a 270 that I use for deer in NC, but am looking for a "do it all" gun for larger game in retirement (Elk, Moose, ...). I love what I'm seeing about the 7mm PRC, and have narrowed it down to that caliber. I love the look and initial reviews of the Bergara, and wondering if you have considered updating (or a follow-on video) of the bet 7mm PRC now that some other manufactures have since released a 7 PRC offering. Am narrowing down on the Bergara b-14 HMR in either the Wilderness or Carbon Wilderness (just not sure the extra $400 is worth it for someone hunting and not shooting competition). Also love the concept of the Burris Eliminator IV to help this older guy who hasn't grown up calculating DOP. Still researching the optics, but would love your take on where the Bergara HMR Wilderness would fall in your list (if at all).
I have an X Bolt Long Range in 7 Rem Mag. I was able to use the trigger spring kit from M Carbo and get it down to a consistent 18 oz trigger
I am excited for this one. I love my 6.5 PRC and I think that I would get the Ruger American in 7 PRC and then put it in a Chassis system. That way you get the AICS Magazine and you are still getting everything for under 1K depending on who you go with. I like this one thanks for showing it!

Tikka T3X Tac chambered in 7 PRC. I will pre order that as soon as it’s announced
The Ruger 7mm PRC as well at the 6.5 prc have loading issues because of feed ramp angles. Too slow or too fast it wont load. The magazine are fine, it is just the metal feed ramp wont hold the rounds high enough. Also people at Magpul are aware of the issue for the 6.5prc as their stock and mag will not fix the feed ramp issue. The magazine on the go wild is great and you can see the upgrades on it. Feeding is not magazine related.
Really am enjoying your videos. Thanks from South Africa 👍👍👍
Yeah, I needed this because I'm going to go pick one up tomorrow and haven't quite made up my mind.
I got a mossberg patriot in 7mm prc was very surprised by how well it shot and it has a great trigger
Interesting comment on the heavy Browning trigger. I thought mine was heavy as well. Then I put the gauge on it and it was comparable in weight to others I have. I wonder if it’s the shape or position of it that makes it feel heavier than it actually is. I will say also, that it does not adjust down as low as they say it should.
Great show and thanks for the info my friend 👍👍👍👍👍👍

The Seekins a good rifle for the money, but I agree about the stock. It does feel cheap. On the flip side, it's light.
I've said it several times: the value proposition for a Ruger American Go Wild is hard to beat. The stocks really are the weak point (but can be enhanced somewhat). But in good news, all but the .243, 6.5CM, 25-06, and 30-06 have upgraded magazines (my .308 has NEVER had a misfeed with the AICS mag). If you hunt in anything but dry climates, you'll appreciate Cerakote. And the muzzle brake is effective. Worth the extra $150 over the Standard.

Yep, the Ruger "go wild" in 7prc in the MDT oryx chassis eliminates 2 issues with one solution, it gives you a MUCH better stock/chassis system AND let's you use AICS mags. The only downside (or upside depending) is you've also made it a little heavier, good for shooting at the range, not so great for carrying long distance. *Edit, I apologize, I misspoke, the MDT oryx chassis isn't available for a Ruger long action (I could have sworn it was) it IS available for a Mossberg Patriot long action, but not the Ruger. Boyd's does offer stocks for the Ruger American long action, so that's something.

Owned a Fierce Fury 7 Mag for five years and it shoots extremally well, Beware of their deplorable service and hopefully your rifle never needs service because in plain English it sucks. 3.3 Google reviews and virtually all the negative reviews refer to service. My first hand experience with service was the same. I needed a new trigger because it slam fired and it took me weeks to get someone on the phone. I did get a new trigger no thanks to John and his do nothing attitude. Good luck with yours.
The great thing about the Ruger American Go Wild is that most of the calibers come with a single stack magazine that feeds flawlessly. I own one in .243, 6.5 Creedmoor and .300 win mag.

I just got a Browning X Bolt Pro McMillan in 7 PRC, I put a Steiner Predator 8, 4x32x50 on it and I love it. Although the scope had to be shimmed to allow it to be bore sighted. Called Steiner and talked to them about it and was told to get Burris signature rings with the shims to get a proper 100 yard zero. So that’s what I did. Love the rifle it’s actually my new favourite!

I'm glad you got it to work - but in 2024 a scope should not need to be shimmed. It means something is out of spec. Especially with that much optic, you should easily be able to 0. Are you using a rail, or a 2 piece base system?
@SigCross

I was using the 20 MOA rail that came on my Browning but the guy at Steiner said a 0 MOA might help. It didn’t. I then sent the scope back to them and they did some adjustments and sent it back. I was able to bore sight it with Vortex medium rings on my 0 MOA base. I’m going to take it back to the range to get it dialed in. I need it to be perfect as I’m taking that rifle to Newfoundland in September to hunt Caribou !

Hey long time watcher here. The more I watch the more I want to try my hand at some short long shot shooting. Was wondering what your thought are of the ruger precision chambered in 300 wm 🙂
Something to note about the carbon fiber barreled options is that they are NOT heat friendly. They're not dangerous or anything, but they exhibit much worse groupings as they heat up. This makes them better for hunting because you're not often taking multiple shots in relatively quick succession, but they're not optimal for competition or range use. They can certainly shoot very good groups, but they struggle much more than a good steel barrel as they heat up. After doing my research and really soul searching regarding what type of shooting I'd be doing most often I settled on steel barrels for everything for me personally (I'm much more likely to shoot long range than I am to go hiking deep in the woods because I have a 1000yd range on my property) I'll take the extra weight for greater consistency over ultimate portability. Not saying carbon fiber barrels are bad at all, but they're not perfect in every scenario.

@@jaydunbar7538 I'm just saying that just because they're awesome at one activity does not make them good at another. Just because his channel's focus is on hunting doesn't mean people who aren't predominantly hunters won't watch his content. I wouldn't call myself an avid hunter, but I do shoot long range and I do hunt deer. I still watch his content because he does decent reviews on products that other channels might skip over. Tactibros (as I like to call them) only want to talk about specific things, and long range channels generally have lackluster review content. If you want a review on a specific scope (or hell, even a specific brand) most channels don't branch out much, so you kind of get stuck in an endless loop of the same reviews of the same optics. Backfire is a breath of fresh air in that regard. His content reaches a pretty wide audience and it's generally good content.
Thanks. I have a Fierce Twisted Rival (spiral-fluted SS cerakoted barrel) on order. Another plus in moving up to the Rival from the Rogue is the option of a box mag. I just can't warm up to the carbon barrel.

They deteriorate pretty quick. A gunsmith who shoots match saw my disbelef when he told me that so he opened a drawer and pulled out 3 or 4 barrels that used to be carbon fiber. They just disintegrate with the heat from being shot. Epoxy doesn’t like heat.
I have found an M Carbo trigger spring can help shrink already good groups in this Ruger series.
Bergara just announced they are going to chamber for the 7PRC. Curious on which model they will chamber it in first.
@Backfire Do you think you'll do a review on the Christensen Arms Modern Hunting Rifle? I feel like the 7MM PRC might do extremely well with the MHR. Would really love to know your thoughts on it
Now I don't quite get your opinion on the Seekins stock (when it is a carbon composite stock for a PH2). I don't personally own one but Ive been around a 6.5 PRC and 300 WM. Both shot really well and are really light. The biggest part I like about them is the action and extended length for 6.5 PRC, 28 Nosler, 300 WM and 300 PRC (I assume 7PRC too but they haven't published it). I reload for 6.5 PRC and would love to sit my bullet out further. Not possible for my rifle. However, Seekins has there 6.5 PRC length at allowing up to 3.14".
It seems the Savage 110 UL in 7mm PRC might be the sweet spot in terms of price/performance. Haven't heard anything bad about those rifles unlike the Mossberg and Ruger which seem to be hit or miss. The price does start to get up there, but still significantly cheaper than the other options that have a barrel and accuracy of that caliber (no pun intended).

Can’t go wrong with browning xbolt with M-carbo spring. Have one in 6.5cm and 28 nosler.
You should definitely take a second look at seekins. Sure I can understand that you don’t like the stock. I was between the waypoint and the element. Waypoint initially felt more comfortable but after a day on the element, it was a no brainer. Seekins just shoot lights out, and are incredible for their price range. And if you want something more prs style look at the HIT. Everything you want in a prs rifle for 2k along with seekins guaranty. Pretty hard to beat in my opinion. Was also looking at a fierce but we’re too heavy for me even in the carbon stock and carbon barrel. My element is a 6.5 prc with VX5 3-15, ti brake. Total weight is 7lbs even and kicks like a 243

Only thing I don't like with the Seekins 7mm PRC is it's a 26" barrel.(Havak PH2). Would prefer a shorter barrel. The Element which has a 22" barrel is too expensive.
When you add the scope, muzzle device and sling and tripod the inexpensive rifle double or more easily. I like the sound of the caliber and use but not in a recoil sensitive low weight rifle and stock. Hope to see a Bergara and Tikka, not interested in rediculously light given the power of the cartridge to tame. Great subject and observations but a Fierce with the add ons is simply astronomous for most. An X Bolt with a modified replacement trigger or amercian with a replacement magpul stock? now interested. or the 110 with that barrel.
Interesting content!

Christensen Ridgeline FFT. With the brake that comes with it, recoil is in the 243 range.
The Browning X-Bolt (Speed LR) looks nice especially at price point. But I like the Sako 85 which is being replaced with the Sako 90. I like the Sako 85 magazine and how one can top feed. I like the trigger, and the mechanical ejector. I do not like how brass flies with some of the other spring loaded plunger ejectors. Would you recommend I just pick up a Sako 85 in .300 Win or 7mm Rem Mag, have a gunsmith re-barrel to 7PRC? I can always keep or sell the factory barrel. I just don't know I will be happy with the X-Bolt magazine and ejection. And by the sound of it, I have to replace the trigger anyway. Any thoughts?
Im on a college budget but i want to get into 7 prc. What rifle would you go with? Reliability and accuracy are a must, at least 1 moa at 100 yards. Id also like it to be as light as possible while still being reasonable. Im considering the savage 110 ultralight bc I plan on getting the rifle next year, but im open to suggestions

The Savage 110 doesn't have a magazine issue, it has an issue with the extractor & ejector. You can buy an upgrade kit from Kinney's for 30 bucks and it really helps with ejection. The 110's are awesome if you plan on building something out. You can get a 110 with a scope for 800 (CAD). Put the scope on a rimfire or sell it, and upgrade the scope and stock.
The good thing about the savage ultralite is you can change it to a mdt stock and change it to metal clips
Bergara just dropped a 7 prc.
I think there are precious few platforms this cartridge makes sense in. The 7mm PRC was designed to optimize a standard long action, and so my first criteria for rifles that really make sense with the cartridge is that it be a standard long action. And there just isn't a lot of these actions available on the market. The push feed bolt actions were mostly designed as a cheaper response to the exquisite but expensive controlled round feed Winchester Model 70 and other sporterized Mauser based actions. To cut down on machining costs, manufactures skipped the standard length long action and went straight to the magnum length long action. So if you have a Remington M700 LA or any of its derivatives like Bergera, a Savage M110, a Browning A-bolt or X-bolt, you don't have a standard length long action. You have a magnum length long action. Plenty of standard length cartridges have been chambered in these magnum length actions over the years, but the 7mm PRC is uniquely unsuited for this. Most of your traditional standard long action cartridges, like the .30-06 and its derivatives, and the standard length belted magnums like the 7mm Rem Mag and .300 Win, all have case lengths of 2.5 inches or so. So these cartridges can be loaded longer than SAAMI spec to better fill out the extra length in the magazine. This allows you to get the right seating depth for best accuracy and frees up space in the case for powder allowing optimal velocities. The 7mm PRC has a case length of 2.28 inches. This allows it to use really long VLD bullets in a standard long action without intruding on case capacity. However, it means that even the longest bullets can now not be seated out to fill a magnum length action. A magnum length action can take cartridges lengths of at least 3.6 inches, and depending on your magazine box, often significantly longer. A Wyatts extended box will allow you to seat a 195 gr Berger to over 3.8 inches in a .28 Nosler or a 7mm Rem Mag. But with the 2.28 inch case length, the 7mm PRC is designed to take these bullets out to a cartridge length of 3.34 inches, and you really can't stretch them too much farther than that. As a result, I don't think any magnum length action makes a lot of sense for the 7mm PRC. You really have to look to find an actual standard long action. Something like a Tikka. Or an expensive custom action. There is just better options available if you're looking to optimize performance from a more readily available magnum length action, like a Savage or Remington M700.

I like the barrel length to get the velocity out of the cartridge even with a brake it would not be too long. I can see your shorter barrel only if using a suppressor. What do you think?
I feel like I'd rather have a 28 Nosler 🤷♂️ but then again I love high powder capacity rounds. I'm having a 7mm RUM Ackley Improved built right now lol.
I'm thinking (waiting for the release) Savage 110 HIGH COUNTRY. I have one in 308 Win that I really like. Its threaded, adjustable and have some weight. Savage 110 Timberline is also an option. What are your thoughts on these options? I already have my Hornady dieset and shellholder plus I picked up 5 boxes of ammo at $60 each...ouch! I just need large rifle magnum primers. I bought match grade Hornady bullets too.

I saw LG rifle magnum primers at outdoor limited , they're in NC. Just passing info
You should try and get your hands on a Proof Research Elevation. Love mine!
You didn’t mention Proof Researches MTR. Any thoughts on that one, certainly not cheap, but one would think it would be good. I’m leaning Fierce CT Rival xp, but which way would you lean?

I have the exact same question. Proof MTR Looks badass.
Could you get the savage 110 apex hunter in 7prc?? Would love to see a review on that and see if savage can make a sub moa cheap riffle
Thank you.
I hope you do a review on the zero tech scope
I had a different take on that Mauser: Given that Paul Mauser personally invented 7x57mm Mauser, the 7mm cartridge that is the granddaddy of numerous cartridges ranging from the .30-06 to the .257 Roberts, it seems apt that the new powerhouse 7mm cartridge, arguably a spiritual successor to the 7mm Mauser, pairs will with that new Mauser rifle. Great video!
Which stores have you found ammo at? I haven’t seen it at sportsman’s or Dixie gun
How do you feel about the Remington 700 long range PRC? It’s on sale at local gun shop I was thinking of purchasing…
That weatherby 338 with the 18" barrel, make that a 7prc and I'm happy. I'd settle for a 20" too maybe
I would love to see a review on the new 7MMPRC from CVA Cascade long range hunter
would you say the baergara b14 hmr or the new ruger american gen 2 be the better 7mm prc platform? i want to get into long range shooting but i dome want to break the bank haha id like to be into a rifle under 2k fully set up. im going to run the darken 6x25x56 optic on it which runs 550 ish so that leaves 1500 or so for the rifle. ive seen the new ruger stocks and triggers aren't great so id assume id need to change them but the barbara runs 1200 so if the stock is good and the trigger is decent it would be under the budget also
I have been looking at a 7 PRC and i was wondering what are your thoughts on the Fierce Mt Reaper and the Savage 110 ultralight elit? Thse are the two models i'm looking at the most
Building one in rugger skeloton stock. Because it fits my large frame so good i own several in several caliber.
I have the Savage 110 ultralight. $1000 barrel with a $400 receiver in stock is exactly where my money needs to be directed. Sub 3/4 groups. Nice rifle. 10:57
Jim please review a havak element, I think you won’t be disappointed; and offered in 7prc they can’t be beat it’s basically a sako 85 action in a cheap elr sock… however it’s worth noting for the viewers!!!
Hope you're doing well after the incident, best regards from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Please review a Remington 700 in 7mm PRC as they are one of the first to risk clambering the Hornady round. Thanks. Brett
Hard watching all these videos about PRC rifles. Yet cant find one anywhere

They're definitely rolling out, but I think within the next two months, there will be tons on the shelves.

Can't find rifles here in New Zealand yet. Just starting to see some 7PRC ammo in the shops
What about 300 prc? What rifle I should buy in 300prc? I just ask because I am really looking for one right now. Thank you in advance
Do a review of velocity with and without a silencer
Late last year Timney released a new trigger for the x-bolt 👍
