I bought a 6.5 prc CA traverse last year. The gun shoots 1/2” at 100 yards with 147 eldms. I own a full custom 28 nosler, as well. With that said the CA rifles are not in the same league as a full custom, but it’s nice to not have to wait for a gun to be built. I would definitely by another one they are very accurate in my opinion. I hope you get yours figured out I definitely think it will treat you well.

I just bought a Mesa in 7 MM-08.  Putting a new scope on it and looking forward to see how it does.  It's going to be a while because I can't find any ammo. :bash:

I shot mine for the first time today.  The brake isn’t obnoxious and turned the 300 into a 270 recoil-wise.  I just took a box of Federal Fusion because I didn’t have time to make up some loads.  Rifle shot ridiculously well with that ammo.  1 1/2 groups at 200 were the norm.  I’m impressed.

Choice ammunition had some 7mm-08 on their website a couple days ago. Might give them a look. Have had decent luck shooting their ammo.

............ The gun shoots 1/2” at 100 yards with 147 eldms........ With that said the CA rifles are not in the same league as a full custom.

What would the other league be? Less then 3/8 MOA? Longer throat? Just curious.
