Great looking build. My friend that was at the Oklahoma match you went to has been bugging me to get into this as well. I can't afford to build another rifle for Hunter and I'm really focused on learning the RPS game now and getting confident enough to do a fully sanctioned match soon. I have been having some Kestrel headaches the last few matches, but I think I figured it out. Mostly user error of course, lol. Good to see the full rig, Rick! Have a great week!!
@IY6C Yeah, it does look like it will add a whole extra challenge. I was never that interested in hunting like my brother and dad, so I didn't look into this much before. But, I can see how it'd be fun in a different way than the PRS stages. I'm about to do my 8th match Sunday. Been getting 52-60% hit percentage, my goal is upper 70s before I try a full, pro level match. I have to take a day off work, and I hate missing work 🤣 So I want to make sure I'm ready and will do decently my first time. These local matches have been great to learn and they are on Sundays when I'm off work!! Always trying to get 1 to 2 specific skills worked on between the matches. I think I've been doing well learning this quickly. Have a good evening!!
I have the Seekins havoc in a 7 mm , have yet to shoot it. It’s been too hot here to do so. I’m going to be shooting it alongside a fierce rogue 7 mm PRC . so we’ll see, which is better as soon as it cools down . But I would say both guns are extremely nice. The Seekins bolt action is the smoothest action I have ever encountered, and the fierce rogue has to be the lightest gun for the caliber that I have. I am very excited and anxious to shoot both as soon as possible.
Great looking rifle Rick. I have never heard of this brand of rifle until you bought one. How is that throw lever spelt? Do you know if they make them for Nightforce NXS scopes? Cheers 🍻 🍻
How does the action compare to tikka or bergara? I tried the ph2 at scheels and I wasn’t impressed with the action but maybe it gets better or maybe it needed some oil
If you were ready to drop 3000.00 on your dream scope which one would it be? Would you get a high dollar scope or the havoc hitt pro??? Love your vids respect opinion. Thanzs
I think glass is just as important if not more. Scope depends if you have weight restrictions. My favorite scope is the vortex razor gen 3 6x36 but won’t make weight it’s to heavy for this style match. On my Rimfire and center fire prs rifles that’s what I run.

Search Mkm throw lever and they have many options
Thanks Rick👍

The tikka is smooth as silk after some rounds Bergara comes in last of three but the ph2 after some use is pretty dang good

Easy night force 5 to.25 0r 7 to 35
I.bought that vortex scope didnt like it at all sent it back...put my strike eagle on.5 to 25 much better scope
great looking and shooting rifle, but more useless gadgets than a fire truck. spend the gadget money on a better scope !
