    This is my main rifle for pretty much all the hunting I do if a serious centerfire round is called for.

    Tikka T3x Lite 20" in .308 Winchester
    Zeiss HT 2.5-10x50
    ERA rings and picrail
    A-Tec H2
    Bell & Carlson Sporter with custom bedding
    Harris BRMS

    By now I reload 150 grs FOX Classic Hunter (lead free deformating bullet) with great success.
    Average for four rounds (after all it is a hunting profil barrel) is settling around 0.7 MOA.
    This is an average for twelve different "four round groups" on multiple days.

    This group was shot in the field @100 m.
    Scope was not yet adjusted to the new LOT.

    That setup would be right at home in NZ.
    PS I like the bolt handle.

    My back to basics gun. Used to mostly bush hunt and then got more into farm hunting where shooting longer became the norm as well as not being to far from the ute or quad meant rifle weight never became a problem so could have lots of stuff and big scopes and long barrels then I went bush hunting again and didn’t enjoy using my rifle, so a buddy was selling his and I couldn’t say no for what he wanted for it. So got a basic rifle again.

    Finally got the last bits I been waiting on to get my 300prc completely the way I want it
    B14 wilderness barrel and action
    Timmney elite hunter trigger
    Wheeler 2 piece cant bubble rings
    Athlon 4.5-27×50 Midas BTR Gen 2
    Niggaloh qd sling
    DPT mk2 magnum braked suppressor
    Acculong v4 carbon bipod
    Acculong raised cheek piece
    SAP 2 round ammo holder
    Precision Platforms carbon stock with 4 L.O.P spacers.
    Super comfortable to shoot, surprisingly a pussycat under recoil, can't wait to sling some more rounds through it and take a deer at some point.
