My elk hunting rifle

When I head out for elk, I carry a Fierce CT Rage LR chambered in 7mm PRC, topped with a Telson Optics ARC scope. The 7mm PRC is a modern long-range hunting cartridge that offers a flat trajectory and plenty of energy for elk-sized game. Fierce Firearms builds the Rage LR as a lightweight, high-performance hunting rifle aimed at mountain and long-range use.

Why this setup works for backcountry elk

• Lightweight rifle: easier to carry over steep country.
• Flat-shooting cartridge: 7mm PRC gives a flat trajectory and good energy at distance.
• Dependable scope: a scope you can trust is just as important as the rifle.

Gear for an elk hunt

Choose bullets that perform on large game, such as those from Barnes Bullets, and find hunting ammo at Natchez. Compare binoculars and rangefinders at OpticsPlanet, scout with the onX Hunt app, and dress for the backcountry with Pnuma Outdoors apparel. Specs are general and can vary by model, so check current details with the manufacturer.

Fierce CT Rage LR in 7mm PRC from a tripod

This is a test of the Fierce CT Rage LR in 7mm PRC with a Telson Optics ARC scope, shot from a tripod. The 7mm PRC is a modern long-range hunting cartridge, and a tripod makes a stable rest in open country where there is nothing else to shoot from.

Why shoot from a tripod?

• Stability: a tripod gives a steadier platform than offhand shooting.
• Adjustable height: it works for sitting, kneeling or standing in open terrain.
• Practice matters: train with the exact rest you will use in the field.

Gear

Find 7mm PRC and other hunting ammo at Natchez, choose hunting bullets from Barnes Bullets, and compare binoculars and rangefinders at OpticsPlanet. For range days, use ShellShock hearing protection.
