    Another suggestion -- the lightweight rifle can have a lot of recoil which can impact your accuracy. I put a nice muzzle brake on my CA Ridgeline in 6.5 Creeedmoor and (as I mentioned), it / I now shoot with it 0.25 MOA groups consistently with Hornady 143 Grain ELDX Precision Hunter. I've also had a lot of success with Berger 140 Grain Elite Hunter and Berger 156 Grain Elite Hunter in that rifle.

    Nice video. You should call up Christensen about your Mesa. They have a 'sub-MOA guarantee' and from what I have heard they stand by it. I have heard from others that CA rifles aren't all great. Mine shoots sub 0.25 MOA -- it's a fantastic rifle. But if you have problems, I believe CA stands behind their products and will fix your 300 PRC Mesa.

    I've spent about 1 month comparing Christensen Arms reviews and I can definitely say the one caliber to avoid seems to be 300 PRC. Not sure what it is about Christensen but their 300 PRC barrels seem to struggle with accuracy and grouping in every platform they offer. I noticed complaints about it in the mpr models heavily as well and it's struggles in accuracy. In preparation for Spring Alaskan hunts I think I will be trying out a Christenson in the 338 lapua instead. Ammo is sky high right now but worth it for kodiak hunting. Great review, Beautiful Guns, and best of luck this hunting season.

    It's not your shooting. I watched your arm while shooting and your breathing. Try a Franchi by Benelli. 800.00 rifle. Ceracote fluted stainless bolt 24" threaded and comes with a break. Got it in 300wm. Action is smooth as glass. Lighter than the Mesa. Which I hate! Also comes with the rail.
    After break in it shoots .71" groups with factory federal hybrid 185gr. Check it out and compare the two. I'll even let you borrow mine to review and test the two. Love the videos...keep it true as you do.

    Hey Sgt I’ve been a 30.06 guy since I was 16 and all I hear about these days is the 6.5 cred. I’ve never shot one so I can’t compare. I’m getting a new rifle for this year’s deer season. Unfortunately I don’t know anyone who has a 6.5 for me to shoot. So any comparison you can give me would be helpful.

      I am an old 30-06 man myself. I think if you are familiar with the 243 it will help. Low recoil. Ammo a litte higher most likely available. So far I really like the round. Think 243 and 7mm-08. Short action low recoil accurate and flat shooter. I have been surprised. But, will not give up my 30-0. Thanks for watching
