After the success we had last year with the 6.5 PRC. I asked Derrik at Precise Rifle Solutions to build us another one. But to fit Tanya a little better. Here are the components.

Gunwerks Clymr Stock(LOP cut to 13") and bottom metal.
Freedom Action(Defiance UL)
22” proof SL 1/7 twist
Thunderbeast break/can adapter
Thunderbeast Ultra7
Trigger Tech Diamond
NF UL Rings
Swaro X5 3.5-18(could change)

All up with can it's 9#. The whole point of the build was not about weight but to build a very forgiving, shootable rifle we can both shoot. I will keep you posted.

That is one great looking rifle. If it preforms as good as it looks, it'll be a shooter!

Ryan - did you bed that clymr stock or go with the bedding block insert? Any chance you got a weight in it as well without the action/bottom metal in it?

Last question :)

I assume those are the 147gr match loads...what speeds are you getting out of that 22” barrel?

Sweet rifle. Gucci game is strong..

I'm a little suprised by the velocity numbers. I thought the prc would be running 3k (not hornady factory stuff as its usually slow).

The 22" barrel will rob it of 50-100 fps depending on length. (24-26)

Perfect length for the TBAC though.
