Building A Custom Lightweight 300PRC Hunting Rifle - (Part 1)

[@TG-bw1kc]

You make some of the best content in the game, man! Only recently discovered your channel, but burning through everything!! Thank you so much 🤘

[@philipsteele5704]

Terminus is a great action and a great company.

[@willo7734]

Congrats on the MDT license! They really do make the best chassis imo.

[@Brotrindenvogel]

Terminus do great actions. I love the 60° bolt throw. I use the Curtis Valor.

[@JoshBeal-i4n]

Only issue with the barrel is it won't last as long due to the carbon fiber bc it doesn't disperse the heat as well as the steel

[@DieselGlo]

That's such a great concept. Good at prs? Nah, no way. But that much cartridge in such a light package? Love it!

[@PLL1652]

Hunted with my 300prc a few times this year here in RSA, 245berger eol(bought from local shop called impact, you should try them out) with n570 running around 2870fps. It bliksems a bluewildebeest.

Your vids got me motivated to start shooting long range! Just got a tikka ctr in 308 that’s going to be a great long range deer rifle.

[@michaelsmit8119]

Hi Pieter what would be great is for you to do a review on all standard rifles that you purchase off the counter without modifications , you have the experience on what scope is required what barrel Length to get etc…. Hoping one day you can make this happen

[@HowManyLegsItHas]

Excited for the build.

[@DirtyCombos]

How much of a difference is large rifle primers from large magnum rifle primers?

[@wallers63]

Terminus is the best of the best! I love both Zeus actions I have!

[@FrankvanderVelden-ef6cz]

Good evening Peter, I'm Frank from The Netherlands. When I look at the history of hunting I see a lot rifles with a wood frame. This to me feels elegant, original, desired working tool. I like your hinting video's and looking at technical specifications of the rifles you shoot with. It does feel like a bit of Terminator (movie), skeleton frame. All function, not about how it looks. How do you look at the difference of these rifles? Good functions to me is only one part of enjoying shooting. I do enjoy that part, but my mind is looking for more than that.

[@spysweeper]

Sweet!!! that is exciting!

[@blaiz4]

what new carbon chassis? any pic out of it

[@bradleytyrrell4417]

Awesome piet can't wait to see the rest of this build. I'm getting a 300wsm built as we speak

[@MichaelLynch-n9v]

Nice! Need to get a 6mm PRC going soon. I could see that competing with the dasher quite nicely

[@SpudOutdoors]

What is the new carbon stock from MDT?

[@DaxNieders]

Good content, great video!

[@MontanaWild78]

I wish you would try some ADG brass because I know you would love it. I have Lapua and Peterson too but ADG is my favorite by far. 215 hybrids with H1000 is money!

[@claytonlillywhite9072]

Love your vids Piete!

[@LukeWatson1]

I wish MDT would show just a little more love to us lefty shooters! Currently no left handed, long action options in the HNT26.

[@john-thomaspringle4199]

Hi Piet! Just wanted to find out hoe sustainable it is to shoot a 300 prc in a hunting setup. Recoil wise,Thinking of a full day’s hunting with alot of shots throughout the day. Thinking of getting one myself but I want to be able to shoot all day and not only 3 shots then my shoulder is done😂 Thanks for the great content!

[@TheReallyPleasedDoge]

Retumbo - Large Rifle primers.. how hard could it be? You're likely to import the barrel, action, trigger and stock and be sitting on a completed rifle meanwhile your reloading components are STILL on a backorder list with no ETA. Wish PROOF would make 26 inch barrels for some of these powder burning magnums, 24 still leaves a lot on the table but nowhere near as bad as a 20-22 inch. Work up a mock load on GRT and note propellant burnt & FPS between the barrel lengths.. Got a chuckle from the fact that even with all of the MDT components and HNT chassis they still couldn't sell you on the $350 scope rings 🤣 Thanks for the video!

[@zebacake4683]

Large rifle magnum primers have been easy to get where I live, been using them in 30-06

@@zebacake4683 You don't happen to live in Ukraine or Israel by any chance? 😂

[@darrel15]

I like their light weight rings but the 1 piece mount is too high for most of the rifles I have. I like to keep my scope as low as possible

Is it true that MDT discontinued the Timbr chassis …? Because I still like the wooden ( but modern) Timbr chassis. Anything else in the making ?

Kratos is a character and the protagonist of Santa Monica Studio's God of War series, based on Greek mythology and, later, Norse mythology. He first appeared in the 2005 video game God of War, which led to the development of eight additional titles featuring the character as the protagonist

[@RMM--uv7uk]

I wanna see the Berger bullet test video. I'm A believer in the E.O.L bullet. But at close range high velocity my testing is not good. I would love for you to test this.

[@markoeberhardt3132]

I’ve never used them but from what I see At close range and high fps bergers fragment a lot.

[@Teolulz]

@@markoeberhardt3132 fragment as in fall apart? and why would it only do that and close range but not longer range?

[@markoeberhardt3132]

@@Teolulz Yes bergers are designed to penetrate a few inches, then fragment, which is super controversial actually. Fragmenting bullets have been around a while, from Self Defense ammo to Varmint ammo. Also in copper and in lead projectiles. They hold together better at long range because they are hitting at Lower FPS and with Lower energy… But basically because they do this, they expand better at further distances than bullets that have a tougher construction, which has pros and cons.

[@Teolulz]

@@markoeberhardt3132 ah got cha thanks for the explanation

I’m planning a trip to Africa to go on a hunt and the guy running the place told me that they don’t like the Berger bullets performance on game? We are talking plains game not dangerous big game! So would you use Berger on Kudu impala etc? Did you get the hunting 26 folding stock model or the standard version?

Have you considered joining Pepperbox? You'd be able to show these builds in complete detail and still make money off the video.

[@Krokmannetjie]

Question. Why do you have to tell youtube the you are not customizing a firearm. If youtube is full of videos

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

Because the people approving these videos think installing a chassis is modifying the firearm. Modding a firearms function on youtube is against their rules for the partner program

real facts!

[@ryanswanson1150]

I have this exact rifle in 7PRC, super lightweight, I shoot with a suppressor so may be cheating, but mine doesn’t kick that bad. (Terminus Kratos Lite Action)

[@vettepilot427]

@@ryanswanson1150 BTW, your suppressor really doesn't help with recoil, so you're not cheating. It does create a delayed impulse, but you still get most of the energy to your shoulder compared to a brake.

[@vettepilot427]

Sorry, my entire response didn't post. There's a significant difference in recoil between the 7 PRC and the 300 PRC. The 7 PRC is the "happy medium" in the PRC line and you did well choosing it for an ultralight rifle.

[@ryanswanson1150]

@@vettepilot427 well my omega 300 has a break on the end, so it does reduce recoil. Haven’t shot the 300 prc, so I’m sure theres quite a bit more pop. Either way, If you’re hunting with a lightweight rifle, hopefully you only need one shot! :)
