Yea don't think you would really want a 7PRC much lighter. It shoots pretty nice with a can or brake... Think unsuppressed.308.Still an ultralight setup for 7mm PRC
Again, mine is the steel action and not Ti... So that's part of it.Thanks for the quick response. I assume the rail and pipe insulation adds about 5 oz so the factory weight would be around 5.4 lb. With an advertised weight of 4.8 lb (short action and 20” barrel) I am a bit surprised by the increase in weight (~10 oz) with a long action and 2” more barrel.
I have the rideline fft in 280 AI with a 2.5-15 credo it is right at 7lbs 6oz. Sweet gun, I love mine.Thanks for the information, very helpful. I would like buy a new light weight mountain rifle for backpack hunting in MT. Thus, weight is important but accuracy out to 600 yards is critical in the areas we hunt. I would like to spend under $5k for gun+scope so the CA seems like a good choice, and one of the lightest options for the $$.
Haven't found the recoil in my 7 to be that bad... The break works well or shooting with a can is ok too. YMMV.I have the non titanium in 6.5CM. For ranges you described might want to look at a lighter recoiling cartridge. Ultralight and heavier recoil don’t mix too well. But if you are set on the 7prc get it, just saw that you ordered, enjoy the rifle. My CA’s have all liked hornady match ammo
