So just seeing what others are doing. I have a 6GT Prs rifle and I recently picked up another action to go along with a previous 6.5cm barrel I was using. For those that have two Prs rifles. Do you set them up the exact same or do you set them up differently? Different chassis/stocks, optics etc.

Or the other option is if you have two precision rifles and they are different; is one a prs and one a nrl or what purposes?

I tried to match my trainer and centerfire as much as I could, scopes get swapped around so that doesnt match and barrels are not exact but they are close enough the feel is the same. Nice thing is you can swap parts back and forth if needed.

I have a PRS 6.5 and an NRL Light 6.5. I like them to be setup pretty much the same. Light gun is in an XLR Element with a razor LHT and PRS is in an XLR Envy with a Gen 3 razor. I am running the Gen 3 in a little taller mount, and I haven’t got around to raising the LHT yet.
 
Im hoping to someday get a second precision rifle. One will due for now. But when that day comes- I don’t see the reason to have two Ferraris in the garage… especially if they are going to be running on the same track.

My .02
I go back and forth. Yeah would be cool to have exact copies but also would be nice to try other things. I’m running and Acc elite right now. Could be cool to try a Foundation or Manners.
 
for my twins I have:
Same caliber
Same gunsmith
Same reamer
Same barrel ( maker, length and profile)
Same muzzle brake
Same rings and scope
Same trigger
Different actions
Different chassis (might go same soon)
 
Depends if youre making a "backup" or just another range toy.
I went with same everything but purposely chose two different cartridges, I shoot whatever i think will perform the best for that match. Has not happened to me, but ive saw a couple people travel to a 2day event and had to cut it short because of a gun malfunction....Those people were not going to win the match by any means but basically spent a pretty good amount of money for the weekend to be there.

Two is one, one is none. When I go to a class I bring two rifles in the same cartridge.
