Been squeezed for time, but there's a lot of summer left.. So far the 139's are shining...and there's no guessing on how it performs on game. Recoil with this APA brake is about the same as a .223, virtually nothing. imag Luck....is the residue of design...

300MAG Campfire Tracker Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 7,446 GREENSBURG, PA	Thinking about building a 6.5 PRC....trying to figure out which action would work best for this build. Looking at the Defiance XM action and the Surgeon 591 WSM action.....any suggestions between the two?? The set-up is going to use a BDL style floorplate....want to make sure this thing feeds reliably and smoothly in the field. Last edited by 300MAG; 08/21/18.
