If you’re just shooting that rifle stock off the rack, this is really impressive. Solid work on the reloading side and can tell you are dedicated. Great shooting bud!!
I hate all your videos. That is why I keep coming back for more. Good stuff in this one. Just got the MPR haven't had a chance to shoot yet.
Haha thanks bro
Great detailed video. Couldn't find the 338 bergers anywhere and came across some always easily attainable Speer 225gr SPBT for cheap, thought what the heck. Loaded them with some surplus H1000 and extra Win LRM primers for the 338 Lapua. 1 grain short of max it chronos at 3200FPS at the muzzle, single digits and prints a clover leaf group at 200 yards. Lazer out to 1600, haven't shot them beyond that yet. I am rethinking this heavy bullet theory. Keep it light and flat. Hand measuring each load for seating depths for optimal consistency. A bonus with this load is recoil is lighter and I can see hits through the scope. P.S. unroll a sleeping bag extended from your shooting mat outwards from your muzzle. No more dust cloud from the slayer brake.
I really like the Berger 245 grain Elites in mine. I'd take that BC over velocity any day.
iv been using the 175 smk and 185 berger hybrids for years in 308. 5 years in f class. berger is very consistent. i bought some of the newer a tip hornadys' they are also very good. i mostly shoot hornady 140 bthp in my 6.5 cm mainly due to cost and i stocked up on seconds years ago. iv heard great things about the berger 215. also they are out of stock every were. probably factory loading of 300norma ammo. that is the new military round of choice. i hope they make a bunch for the rest of us too. that is some very nice shooting sir. i really wish i had access to a range like that around here.
Excellent cartridge and rifle. I found a 300prc in an HMR wilderness. Put a triggertech in it and attached my nomad. Be an all day shooter if ammo was a bit cheaper
How do you like the HMR wilderness in 300prc I’m looking at buying one for a long range elk setup I have the ph2 seekins in 6.5prc for deer
@@varmint223 Excellent rifle, smooth reliable action with a good stock. Between the Eldm and Eldx ammo it shoots both accurately. The POI shift with my nomad isn't really there
@@dbeardsley0 I had a hmr in 300wm one of the 1st ones made it shot really bad with all ammo tested 2” at best so I washed my hands of that one
Your channel about to blow up boiiii
Dude you should do a give away with that MPR. That would be insane. I wouldn't be mad if I won it... Great review yet again
Haha maybe if I was sponsored and Christensen wanted me to review a rifle for them, and then give it away? 🧐 I wonder how many subscribers I’d need in order for this channel to be able to do that? First I shoot it, develop a load for the rifle, review it, then give it away to someone. Sounds like a sweet deal.
Just chilling here while my 300prc chills on the coffee table as decor being i can't find 300prc lapua cases in stock . When are corrupt leaders end this scamdemic then shooting sports should go back to normal and prices as well . I spend 50k on ton of stuff in 2019-2020 because of all the deals i kept seeing. But did not stock up enough on certain powders , primers , cases as i load for 13 calibers also which is my first real year into the sport of long range shooting. I went catch me if u can style.
Hahaha get some 👏
I've been wondering how Bergers would do in the 300 prc MPR. First of all... I'm surprised you managed to find some! I'm in Arizona- where Berger is based out of. And I can't find any Berger bullets in stock to save my life! I guess that's what comes from living in a state with lots of competition shooters, lol. Anyway... good info. Thanks!
Thank you, and bummer that you can’t find them in stock. Try making notifications on websites and when they get in stock you may have a chance at snagging a few boxes that way.
very good
Awesome video champion I've been thinking about building a 300prc or 300wby to shoot some of the heavier bullets keep up the good work champ
Thank you. Next I’ll be testing the 230 Berger and Sierra.
Smokey and kinda looks like Washington state. Its smokey down here too near the Hanford site.
I'm new to all this rifles and scopes...so before you shoot, how do you measure or do your math when turning your sight up. Your turning the turret a lot, how do you know how much to twist it?
Which model Kestrel are you using? I need to buy one and that looks like even someone like me could properly work it.
Bring an old gallon milk jug filled with water to the range and poor the water in front of your shooting position, no more dust until the mud dries.
What a solid idea.
Pump sprayer with water works as well
Or just piss in front of the muzzle brake 😁😁
what is the name of your camera, which is aimed at the target (gong)?
Nikon B700
@@ThatGuyChannel 😎👍🏼
How do you figure out your incline. And what is that tool your using? I’m new
I noticed this spot near Paradise Valley is washed out now! Any other way to get up there?
You should get a rail mount for your magnetospeed, its really nice. I got the wiser precision its awesome
Perhaps some day! Be nice to have live data after developing the load.
@@ThatGuyChannel definitely check it out. Looks like you are already the man. It's pretty cheap and very convenient. I got one for myself for my v3 and it makes it easy. Great videos by the way u deserve way more subs
Are you zeroing the 300 PRC @ 100 yards or different?
Yes, I zero at 100 yards. I have easy access to 27 yards on my property for a very quick zero process as well. With a 100 yard zero, at 27 yards the bullet should impact 1.2” low, then that works as well (if I’m in a pinch).
what model is this Christensen MPR??
great vid and great shooting. How far are you staying supersonic? Do these bullets stay straight through the trans sonic zone?
From what I can tell they stay straight through transonic. Haven’t pushed to subsonic, but I’ve seen other videos and other people are doing just fine subsonic.
@@ThatGuyChannel well these are now on my list. I named my 6mmARC Randy because he like Berger (105s) so much. I haven't played with their 30 cal offerings but they are on the list. I'm also considering copper turned solids, but because of their SD, your somewhat limited to supersonic distances.
I will be working on more 300PRC shooting here in AL and looking for more of your content. great shooting!
I'm looking at the mpr and I can't decide between the 300 prc or 6.5 prc. Not looking to get too beat up by the recoil. Is it worth it in your opinion to give up the 200 meters range for the reduced recoil?
The 6.5 PRC would be a good option. I think you can use it on any game within range of your safe shooting skills. I often tell people that if I could consolidate my hunting calibers into one, it’d be a magnum short action of some sort (6.5 PRC, 7SAUM, 300 WSM, etc)
@@ThatGuyChannel wow, thanks for replying! If they made it in 7 saum and the ammo wasn't so expensive/hard to come by i wouldn't think twice about buying it. My main issue is the 6.5 and 300 come in the long action and they weigh about the same. So recoil and range are about the only difference. I'll use it as a target rifle 90% of the time so shooting comfortably matters to me quite a bit. I think I'll go the 6.5 route though!! Thanks for the feedback!
I think that’s a good choice especially if it’ll mostly be a target rifle. Enjoy!
my 300 PRC christensen MERSA shooting under an 1" at 300 with 230 A-Tips but when i went out to 770 and beyond gun shot all over the place
Interesting. I wonder if you’re having a Mount issue? Magnums need to be checked on more consistently, especially the picatinny rail. Mine has come loose twice from the shooting recoil. Never had that issue with my savage short action 260 Rem.
@@ThatGuyChannel no issue with any of my torque setting its one of the first thing i check before going out shooting or hunting. I'm going back to load testing going to trying non magnum primers, i hear people are getting more consistent groups
Interesting, and you feel confident in your rings? I had a pair of Steiner rings go bad on me and shooting at long range made it apparent that something was wrong. And yes I use non magnum primers in mine and have good results most of the time.
@@ThatGuyChannel pretty sure the rings are good they are Nightforce rings, bases and scope. but i will have to look over them
Pretty good shooting except you had a few hairs out of place on your head (gotta look good while shooting) so I can only give you a 10.5 out of 10 instead of an 11 out of 10 for accuracy, smart load development, etc. Just make sure you comb your hair a bit better next time- sheesh. Subscribed very very nicely done- definitely be proud of that rifle and shooting.
Looks like WA state mountains ... You a local ?
Did you ever figure out a solution to that loose bolt under the trigger ?
Red loctite did the trick.
@@ThatGuyChannel Same here as well as the bedded and red loctite scope rail
Is the 0.160" off the lands supposed to say .060"? Just curious, that seems like a lot haha but if it works for you it works
Haha yeah it’s a lot, but yep I was jumping them that far.
@@ThatGuyChannel dang haha, I was going to try the 215s but they're like unicorns, the 200.20's are easy to come by. Granted your seating depth is probably different that the one on my 300 prc. But what did you start out at for your seating depth? I can't any load data for those 200.20😂
Well the 200.20x are such a short bullet that if I were to run it closer to the lands the bullet wouldn’t even be in the case for my chamber. So I just stuck it down into the case until it looked about good, and somehow was able to measure the OAL. So the 0.160” jump is as accurate as I could get the reading. And I ran into similar issues with load data, I basically went off of 208gr data and adjust it from there.
What scale is that, I want one.
A&D FX120i
I shoot this out to a mile with my .308. That 300 prc you want the 220 Berger’s. #1 for that cartridge
More than any bullet, I’ve shot the 220 and 215 Berger’s out of this PRC and I agree, they’ve been amazing. I’ve recently tried the 230 SMK that has a 0.800 BC and I’ve been really happy with them. Not sure that I’ll do a review on them anytime soon, but unofficially so far I’ve been happy.
@@ThatGuyChannel I am in the middle of a 300 RUM build that I specifically chambering for the 245 grain burgers and 250 grain A-Tips seen a few builds with very good results one guy is pushing the 245 at 3050 with a 29 inch barrel and I have a 33 inch barrel hoping to be pushing 3100 ft./s but I’m pretty excited to play with that
That’s going to be a laser, wow! I can’t wait for you to start sending rounds through it.

Little boy calibers lol
lol you in ak
Maybe, maybe not ;)
@@ThatGuyChannel looks a little familiar is why I'm asking
If you ARE in AK I'd love to do some long range shooting with you. I have no idea what I'm doing yet 😅
Found your channel while doing research on the 300 prc mpr I just ordered 🙂
@@ThatGuyChannel same here, I'm guessing north of Anchorage? Homer my self
