Anyone have one of these? I’m going to purchase another 7prc down the road, I’m narrowing it down to either a Springfield Waypoint or Seekins PH3, just wondering how the seekins shoots,what factory ammo it likes ect. Pros/Cons Thanks

Hard to find fault with Weatherby, Seekins, Fierce, Tikka, or Christensen. Christensen had some issues a few years back, but they seem to have fixed them pretty quick.
But at the price of a Seekins, why not just get a one of a kind custom? Folks here know I am a fan of Isaac Gallagher rifles, but there are others who do a great job as well.

Hard to build a custom for with parts of any kind of quality for $1700. Ive been there. Currently own the Seekins PH3 in 6mm Creed. It's a lot of rifle for the money. You could always buy Tikka and drop it in a nice stock and you'd be in around the same money. But you're not building a good custom in that price range unless you do all the work yourself and shop for the very best deals on each part

Didn't realize the Seekins PH3 could be bought for that money. Guess I had only seen the Havak Element.
I step back from my previous comment. Never heard anything negative about a Seekins rifle.
Edited to add - After looking, other than the weight. No reason for a hunting rifle to weigh 7+ pounds before it has a scope on it. And the lightest 7 PRC weighs 7.8 lbs with a 22" barrel.

I have two Seekins Havaks. A PH1 in 6.5 Creedmoor, and a PH3 in 6.5 PRC. Love both rifles. They are extremely accurate. Never had to use the customer service, but understand it is great. Amazing for what you get for the price. I looked hard at the waypoint, the PH3 just offers more rifle.

I have a waypoint in 308 and it shoots great, but I think I’m going to try a seekins I’ve heard so many good things about them,
