    Hardy Hybrid and NX8 Brief Review

    Went and picked up the Hybrid in .300PRC topped with a 4-32x50 Nightforce NX8 last week from Hardys direct.

    Big story as to why i ended up with a Hybrid.... should have done it in the first place in hindsight after an unfortunate 8 months of waiting for another rifle that may or may not have been ready by year end.....

    Placed order during lock down and received during July!

    Communication and advice during the build was great, even got some update photos of build progress.

    Final delivery was in the form of a full boxed kit, warranty, Tools, and manual that couldnt be simpler or more in depth either.

    Shot it yesterday, from scope mounting to “into the black” was 3 rounds, in the black and MOA. Shot a heap of rounds following the manuals “run in” instructions and the performance was impressive. Im not a good shooter but still managed MOA/Sub Moa with the factory Hunter ammo.

    For a super light rife, the balance and muzzle break efficiency meant i could fire the PRC all day without feeling it. Whereas i usually get a bit worn out after a bunch of rounds

    Really impressed and would recommend again

    Now to save for a 6.5PRC suppressed barrel!

    Re the NX8 - worth every penny, flawless tracking, glass id say close to ATACR. A little heavy but aok for topping a light rig. i really liked the FFP!
