The Seekins Element Hunter M3 in 7 PRC weighs just 6 lbs, folds down for mountain travel, and printed a .264 MOA group with factory ammunition.

Why the AR-15 Is a Hunting Beast
The AR-15 is not just a range rifle or a tactical toy. It is a genuinely capable hunting platform, and if you have spent any real time chasing game with one, you already know the critics are missing the point.
Savage Impulse Hog Hunter: Straight-Pull Speed Test
The Savage Impulse Hog Hunter brings straight-pull speed, .308 Winchester punch, and a clever Hexlock bolt system into a rifle built for fast hog work. It is quick, strange, heavy, fun, and not without one big Texas-sized magazine complaint.

Federal 6.5 Creedmoor +Peak: A Faster Creedmoor Without a New Rifle
