Triggered Precision Machine - Custom Built 300 PRC Lightweight Long Range Hunting Rifle Review 

I love my Nomad 30! Thank you!

Thank you Jeff!

Thank you so much!

Indeed! When the weather cools, I'm going to take my customer out to stretch that 300 PRC out to a mile. Should be a piece of cake. 💪🏻

Thanks for watching!

Thanks Todd!

Same. Very underrated / under appreciated cartridge.

Hey, thanks!

Thanks!

I was able to pick up a Defiance Tenacity action, raw stainless, .308 bolt face and AI/AW mag cut for $980 today. Is that a decent deal? Question is what do I build out of it 😅?

Thats a smoking deal! My vote, 6mm Creedmoor. I absolutely love shooting that round.

@@triggeredprecisionmachinellc Awesome, I’ll look into that. I’ve been seeing a bunch about 6GT too.

Your first one will be coming along shortly 😁

Over the years I think I've had every barrel contour known to man. I've kind of gravitated towards certain contours but like everything else, that is constantly evolving as well. I prefer to shoot the heaviest contour I am comfortable with for the intended purpose. My hunting rifles with SS barrels all run the sendero contour. It's not a light pencil barrel but it't not a heavy comp. contour either, just a nice compromise. Lately, everything I've been making for customers is Proof carbon fiber. They save you a little weight over a comparable length SS barrel and they shoot fantastic. Other than the increase in cost for the blank, I see no reason to run a full SS barrel for a dedicated hunting rifle. My personal opinion. 😁 On the competition side of things, I run very heavy contours... think MTU / M24 / Straight 1.20 / 1.25 contours. The weight is beneficial for keeping the recoil down and spotting your shots as well as balancing the rifle just forward of the magazine. So now for my reasoning behind some of this. I like heavier contours on hunting rifles than some other people because first off, I don't have physical limitations that keep me from packing a 12lb rifle vs a 10lb rifle or 8lb rifle. I know lots of people with bad knees, backs, etc who have to run the lightest rifle possible. I'm getting to that point myself, lol. The weight helps the rifle settle for a more accurate shot which is key for the areas I hunt where the shots are routinely over 400 yards and sometimes as far as 900-1000. Wide open country. One other thing to consider, if you run a suppressor, the heavier contour barrels are much less effected by hanging that weight on the end of the muzzle. Also, I have one rifle that is dedicated to hunting only, my 7mm RSAUM. That rifle is shot sporadically throughout the year for a few shots but really it is saved for rifle deer season. My other rifles all get shot a lot, on a regular basis. The heavier barrels make them more pleasurable to shoot at the range and soak up the heat from extended shooting sessions better that pencil barrels. Barrel contour is one of those very personal preferences. I've always shot heavy rifles ever since I was a little kid so I'm used to that. With my back issues I can definitely see myself exploring the lighter contour barrels and lighter rifles here in the very near future. Hopefully that answers some of your question! Thanks for watching! -Shawn

@@triggeredprecisionmachinellc it does, thank you!

Absolutely. I'm building an ultralight rifle now for another customer, 30" Proof CF (sendero light contour), MDT HNT26 chassis and a Terminus action. Shoot me an email: Shawn@triggeredprecision.com

Any time!

Hey dude! I had a chance to shoot the rifle with that 419 brake and wow. Very effective. For your DD, I'd check the gas rings and replace them depending on the round count. If not that, check for leaks around your gas block. I'd start there.

@@triggeredprecisionmachinellc well it’s fine now it just done it maybe 2wks a few rds and quit. Bout to fire er now..ol 147@520
