I'm trying to look at your brakes but the website is down.... Do you know anything about this brother?? And I know this might be a crazy question, being that you aren't in America, but Do you give military discounts.... haha....
@@Chad_N_Stacey_Hopson i believe they do. i just ordered two about three weeks ago. love it. hit up Impact Proshop USA . They answered all my questions super fast
Where is the link to sign up as a dealer in another country?

I would love to be a distributor for your amazing products here in the U.S !
That drawing is one of those things you should frame and put on the wall!
That kind of drawing has "Fridge Door" written all over it. =]p
I just took a 15 min break from reloading to watch Piete draw a picture. 🤪
I’m just a farmer from Nebraska, USA. I love seeing a new video pop up. I just have a boring rem 700 sps tactical .308 in a Remington hunter stock. I swear it weighs as much as an ar-10 I had in .243. I love dreaming over upgrading to the things you professional shooters use to make it more fun for predator control.
I'm on the US East Coast (where we rarely run out to huge distances) and I don't have pro money, so I went in the mini direction and I'm absolutely loving it.
- Howa 1500 Mini in 6.5 Grendel heavy barreled action

- Warrior Gen6 Chassis
- Warrior 5 port brake
- Vortex Precision Match Rings
- 20MOA Picatinny rail
- Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25x56 FFP

Thanks for the good content Piet!!
rem 700 long action 6,5x55, vortex strike eagle 5-25x56, spuhr 6mil rings, mdt ess, mdt grndpod , a-tec muzzel break an silincer
Happy to see all the MDT love down in South Africa. Marten Van R is a great guy and so are all his factory crew and his sponsored shooters. All classy people. The XRS sure fills a price point. Great features. And that’s coming from a KRG Bravo owner (but I owned HS3, LSS, ESS units in the past). Cheers and Peace Be To Journey!
What about the 7mm-08? Superior ballistics to .308. Can go over 1K easy. Ammo can be found almost anywhere if you need factory rounds in a pinch. Low recoil. Decent barrel life.
My future build hopes....
MDT XRS/ARCA/CKYE
Razor AMG
Blueprinted Remington 700 (parts kind be found to repair in different locations, not always on custom actions)
22-24” Bartlein or Douglas air guage
Dude, you are one of the funniest people on youtube!!!! Top Tier sense of humor!!! Rock On!!!!
I'm doing a bartlein, bat hammerhead, TT Diamond, mdt acc elite, NF nx8 in 22BRA right now.. can't wait
Damn incredible build!!!
I'm in the middle of my 6.5 prs build. Not in a hurry because lapua brass won't be available for a couple more months. I'm a PRS amateur with one season under my belt. Build so far: American Rifle Co Archimedes short action, Xylo chassis, M10 rings, Patriot Valley Arms 5r 7tw 28" MTU plus barrel, shockwave muzzle brake. Missing: trigger tech diamond trigger, Vortex razor gen 2 4.5-27 w/ Tremor 3 reticle. I'll still shoot my local matches with my production rifle, but use this on elr and some open matches.
Goeie video Piet. In SA is dit net nie so eenvoudig om so lekker setup te bou vir die man wat net een geweer soek nie.
Oorweeg dit om 'n factory rifle setup te bespreek met komponente wat oral beskikbaar is. Dit met die oog daarop om die geweer te customise oor tyd soos komponente klaar raak...
Hou asb aan met wat jy doen. Dis great.
About time for another behind the seens vid,we like those from time to time. Everyone loves to see what goes on . Keep up the great work.

Pete, I have a savage M110 in 6.5 PRC in an MDT XRS and no kidding I handload with 156gr Berger Elite Hunters..............and I must say its amazing. MAKE YOUR BUILD BROTHER.
Thank you so much for this video!!!
I was also Looking for one cartridge, one rifle to do it all. I’m using the 6.5 PRC as well. I have save my money for almost two years. This is my build.

Area419 Hellfire Match muzzle break
Trigger Tech 700 special trigger
KRG Bravo chassis
Atlas bt46 bipod
Hawkins rings
Vortech razor HD scope
It’s a machine
*IF* using a short action. I wouldn't use the SAMMI reamer if you are shooting the heavies. You won't be anywhere near the lands and fit in a magazine. I have been down this road. Then going to the short fb means no shooting factory ammo unless you seat the factory stuff further in the case before it is fired. Again not telling you what to do, just giving you a heads up on what you will find out for yourself.
Savage 110 high country chambered in 30-6 in a mdt lss-xl. Magpul bipod, vortex precision rings and vortex strike eagle 5-25. That’s what I want!
Delta stryker 4,5-30x56, ssg 3000 with original 2-stage trigger in grs bolthorn chassis, 67cm blaser barrell in 6,5x55, a-tec prs suppressor
Got me a MDT XRS, Howa 1500 308, sightmark citadel 5-30x56, warrior range friendly brake and a warrior large suppressor.
Ruger American Predator
6.5 Creedmoor
Warrior medium silencer with 45° brake Magpul hunter
20 Moa rail
Kahles 318i scope
Mdt 1 piece mount

For a tripod I would go old fasion hog saddle or just a barricade bag
Durable setup with a cheap but very accurate disposable rifle ,so that you don't feel bad when having fun and burning barrels. This would be my dream setup.
Gonna take my 5 port Raptor for a test drive next week.then shoot it in the match on the 19th if all goes well
Missing you at the PRS finale!
Love this video and it encouraged me to build a set up very similar to this.
Only difference in my build is going to be a MDT ESS Chassis and it will be paired with a Tikka T3x Varmint 24 inch barrel in 6.5 PRC.
South Africa is very limited to factory rifle availability in 6.5 PRC with a 26 inch barrel, unless I am missing something?
One request that I do have for a video, and you touched on it in one of your other videos, is 1). What does the process look like for South Africans acquiring new barrels for their actions, 2). Building a fully customized rifle with a separate manufacturer of the bolt action to that of the barrel, as it is in this video, 3). Acquiring/purchasing/importing those parts, and 4). Where to fit or modify it all for assembly?
I do hope this make sense and I would love to get some feedback or video on it as I I have no clue about it.
Thank you for what you are doing for this industry (hunting and sport shooting) in RSA.
Lmfao you draw about as good as me.
So did you go short action or long action on that 6.5 PRC
Sounds like it will be a great set up.
Great video. Is there a chance of getting a video on changing barrels vs importing barrels in South Africa?
You still need to get the barrel to change it...?
@@taylorbokshowan5713 the thing for me is, i possibly have to change the barrel on a 308. I also want to build a precision rifle, I know he stated in a previous video that it was easier for him to import a custom rifle than to build a custom here. (I wanted some clarity on that) and also whilst building a custom, i dont want to choose a caliber e.g. 7-300 with a much shorter barrel life than possibly another 308. I know that you can get the barrels for 7-11K depending on what you want but if the paperwork and licensing is nearly impossible then i would rather just avoid it. (In my mind sending an Affidavit with your application stating [rifle A and B are identical, A is shot up, please license B that the gunsmith can install B and destroy A] should be sufficient but I have no experience with the system in changing barrels)
Also my s13 pistol barrel has almost 17K shots through it, if I was to replace that barrel how can I license another barrel on S13 (i should not be able) whilst I still have to get them swapped.
@@Phriqhi wow I didn’t know you had to go through that, I’m from Canada and our rules are nothing like what I’m attempting to comprehend. Here a barrel is essentially a steel tube and doesn’t mean anything until it’s connected to an action but even then you can just swap it no problem
@@taylorbokshowan5713 @Taylor Bokshowan oh sorry i Assumed you are from South Africa XD
So you are only allowed 1 handgun/pump action shotgun for self defense (section 13) and thats the problem. You need to motivate very hard why you require a certain weapon for a certain task. So for getting a S13 license e.g. you need to prove that you are in danger AND that the police cannot protect you (pro tip they can't really due to being understaffed and underfunded but that does not in itself count as a reason) s15 is for occasional sport shooting and hunting. (A pump action shotgun a handgun or bolt action rifle may be licensed here) you need to still prove that you often go shooting and hunting. This gives you a maximum of 4 weapons combined between s13 and 15 of which they must all be different calibers and only 2 may be handguns. To get more than 4 weapons you need to actively and regularly compete in organized sport shooting events this will also allow you to try and license self-loading firearms.
So in licensing my pistol e.g. for self defense, i have occupied that slot. Thus my new barrel wil not be for self defense but for sport shooting. Although that might not currently be a major problem there are organisations that want to make it a problem hence i would like to try and keep my pistol as a s13
Nice one Piet! Would be keen to see that setup come to life! My "do it all" build would also be 6.5 PRC but with...
- MDT ESS Chassis in FDE with carbon fore-end and cheek piece with the Ckye bipod.
- Defiance Deviant Tactical X/M action. (Maybe I'll consider BAT Machine).
- Bix 'n Andy trigger
- Custom machined 24" barrel
- And lastly, I'll go with the normal Vortex Razor Gen 2 scope
Perfect do it all rifle, but leaning more towards precision shooting, instead of hunting...
If I can choose a second rifle, it would be something bigger, like a 7/300wm, 300prc, 300 Norma, in the the MDT ACC chassis and 26" barrel.
Hello Piet, I assume you’re using a Bat TR LA ( because of 156gr EOL bullets) ?
MDT only makes SA or LA chassis?
Wants to built a 6.5prc on a MDT Timbr chassis with Bat HR or Igniter action …..?
Hi I have a Steyr pro hunter .308 Win 26”barrel !Do you know what MDT chassis fit in my rifle?😃
Tried getting one of your brakes but im in Canada. Awesome vids man keep it up.
Canada should be online soon 🎯
@@IMPACTSHOOTING awesome thanks alot man appreciate the reply. I check out your vids before I make my mdt purchases love the info great channel keep it up 👍

Curtis valor hand tight action because I can change barrels in a min to a different caliber without having to use action wrench. I’ve actually switched barrels in the middle of a match before
I understand this cartridge if you don’t reload, just want to buy ammo off the shelf and you looking for light magnum performance. The average guy who buys a rifle off the shelf and shoots a few times a year. Otherwise I don’t get it, too long for true short action in anything but the lightest bullets and lacks capacity. I personally would just go up to the 6.5 SS (Sherman Short Mag) or stay with Creedmoor.
See the 1st part of the video so you understand why he decided for this cartridge. One of the reasons is what you mentioned , availability to purchase ammo I case reload is not possible.
@@Checo1 but what you aren't understanding is he said he wants to shoot the 156 EOLs. They wont shoot worth a crap with the SAAMI chamber. So you go to the short freebore chamber to shoot the heavy bullets.... Once you do that factory ammo will not fit in the chamber without seating the bullet farther into the case, this brings other issues like, possible pressure spikes because the case has a compressed load. This was found out a while back and either Piet knows this already and has addressed it with the smith to use the short freebore reamer or maybe he doesn't and that is why the people that have been down this road are speaking up. I don't want to see the guy spend money, sponsored or not on something that won't do both like he claims it can.
Exactly, The Sherman has replaced my PRC.
@@Ravenrifle He has a early video (not this one) explaining his reasons to go with this caliber.
@@Checo1already watched it and again refer to my previous post... same logic was used in that video.
I also like the idea of the Defiance Badrock.
The issue with the standard length action is it limits your cartridge length. Not good for the potential held with heavy bullets in the PRC case. X length receivers are great. Then you have the problem of magazines. Only 2 answers I know of. Sako and Defiance.
Check them out first Piet!
MDT makes a XM mag, Schalk built his 6.5PRC on a XM action 🎯
Thanks Piet!
Would it be possible to make a video comparing MDT chassis toe other companies ? I mean there are multiple good chassis out there and comparing them would help alot to people thanks
Hey Peter. Could you make a video explaining what direction to go with on a muzzle break. Currently putting together my first precision rifle. It is a Bergara 6.5 26” barrel in a chassis. And want to run your break! I’m wanting to venture into some long distance and possibly some competitions but also plan to hunt with it some as well. Thanks Peter. Your videos have inspired me to make lots of pore financial decisions !! Lol
For me I ditch the brake for hunting. It’s just so much concussion. You usually only need one shot and don’t put ear pro on.
I picked up a 6.5 CM for a do everything. But I am thinking of building a .300prc as a do everything.
I think you should invest in some good crayons... Felt tips are too advanced for you obviously..... Or maybe start with an etchasketch.....😍😍
Would you be able to do a budget version of this build with a howa 6.5 prc 24 barrelled action please?
Sick build man
Kan jy 'n video maak oor die verskil, asook die pros en cons tussen die 6.5 creedmoor en die 6.5 PRC, asseblief?
6 Creedmoor - 1-7.5 twist - 4 grooves
- 26" Benchmark varm/sendero contour ( MTU for a multi purpose rig is too heavy...especially hunting)
- APA little bastard gen 3
- Bighorn Origin or ARC Nucleus ( because it’s the best valued for features actions on the market )
- Triggertech special two stage
- XLR element 3.0 - simply the best option for hunting and match (22 oz to 8 lbs ) (with heavy
parts and weights kit for PRS)
- US Optics FDN 25X
This sounds like .y dream build but I was thinking about Creedmoor so interesting to think about PRC instead as it sounds like the next best caliber lol
Working on a a PRC build similar to this one... Buddy has one and it kicks a hair harder than a creedmoor. well worth it to go this route plus it packs enough power to pretty much shoot any thing
@@aaronvillarreal2106 thanks for the feed back if you happen to have a list of build parts you are going to use id be interested in what and where to get stuff for it. Thanks again!

Hi, can you explain why we never see you run a tac 21 chassis? Mdt say it is better at soaking recoil in a straight line..
What are the disadvantages to tac 21 vs their other stocks? I specially think about precision of chassis mounted scopes (tac 21) vs their other chassis with action mounted scope?
Kind regards Niklas from Denmark.
My like moved the likes up for this video to .357 :D
Great video as always
This is off of the subject of this video, but I think it might be of interest. I've watched several videos of PRC and NRL matches, and have noted that some competitors use the scope as a handle when going from one location to another. This doesn't seem like a good idea to me as the screws and threads holding the scope to the rings appear pretty small. My rifle is a Savage model 10 in a Oryx chassis and weights over twenty pounds (9.72 kilograms) with scope and magazine. Using the scope as a handle just seems a bit careless. Thanks, Roger
Hall monitor?
@@davidsalsedo Sorry you feel that way. Just trying to preserve expensive equipment. I may be wrong, but I believe the scope ring screws are the weakest on the rifle.
A steel 6-48 or 8-40 screw each have a clamp loads exceeding 1000lbs. That’s 4 screws for the base and 8 screws total for the scope rings.
It’s the impact forces you need to worry about, not static forces such as holding by the scope and even those don’t approach the maximum clamp force. Do you have to worry about losing zero? Maybe. Breakage? Unlikely.
Hi guys, does anyone know where one can have a left handed rifle custom build in South Africa?
How much wine has he drunk lol
I don’t know why but I’m much better with a 2lb or less single strange trigger by far with a flat shoe and no take up jus lace ur trigger on the finger and have a light crisp break I’ve tried 2 stages such as a ssa-e still prefer my 2lb crisp pull and pretty close to the same as the 2nd stage break unless your using something with a crazy light trigger which I like but not for prs where the recoil can make it a lil easier to break the shot to early I see that as more of a bench rest trigger but I’ll agree it’s a preference thing or a what your used to training with which is why I’m much better with a single
Well, I’ve watched enough impact to build a 6.5cm. Carbon 6 barrel, defiance anTi X action, razor hd g2, mdt ess 12” forend, CMC flat shoe r700 print trigger, carbon fiber pistol grip. And if MDT ever offers the carbon parts for the ESS again, I want those
Damn son that sounds like a badass build!!
lightweight gun parts with the heaviest optic on the face of the earth? kind of an oxymoron.
@@Ravenrifle right? Lmao. It’s the optic I have though, another 1700 on another is a little hard to justify. Maybe all the rest is just to compensate and bring it back to normal weight overall
@@IMPACTSHOOTING all your fault 😂 had to go straight to the top
Newbie questions:
bullet for 6.5 creedmore is the same for PRC, only difference is the brass?
If this is true, can I use de muzzle brake for 6.5 cm for PRC? same with barrel?
yes,yes and yes.
Different barrel. The PRC round sports a .300 casing. I have a Savage GRS10 in PRC. Cost for ammo is about $2 / round at the moment.
Yes to all of the above 🎯
@@thewhitematstudio Now I am confuse, can I use same barrel or not? all other answered yes.
Absolutely not. Only ever use the correct barrel for the caliber you are shooting.
I would be interested to hear how you like the 6.5 SS compared to this PRC. I was looking at the PRC then found Sherman and am thinking of scraping the PRC and move to a 7SS. I have 3 other 7mm rifles and have lots of bullets for it. I like the heavier/longer choices for the 7mm. LMK. :-)

Waar kan ons die PRC koop
Why not 264.Win Mag?
What do you think of the new Sako S20 hybrid rifle?
Love it mate 7mm08 it’s a rippa IMO cheers Yogi Australia
Hi Peter,love your content.i shoot wildebeest and kudu etc.larger game for our butchery. Would you recommend a 6.5 creedmore
Shot placement is key, 6.5Creed is exceptionally capable in the right hands. Ive shot plenty Kudu with mine
I can second that, if you have a funny angle/frontal shot... you might want a bit more power, nothing that can't be taken shooting on the right spot. having a good bullet/monolithic is a big advantage. I only hunt with the Peregrine VLR4's now and have not looked back since. Used 143gr ELD-X and the 142gr Nosler Accubonds before. My next rifle will be a 300WSM
Still looking for G&G bolt knobs in US.
We had 2 shipped from South Africa....took 2 months to get here in NY but well worth it
Theory is sound, but settle down Picasso lmao
