Key Features
- Quick-Change Barrel Collar – Patent-pending system lets you swap barrels in under two minutes without tools. Why it matters: you can change calibers or replace a worn barrel at the range, not the gunsmith.
- Three-Lug Bolt with 60-Degree Throw – Short lift clears low-mounted scopes and speeds follow-ups. Why it matters: faster cycling in PRS stages or when you need a second shot on a moving target.
- PH3 Carbon Composite Stock with Full-Length M-LOK – Adjustable cheekpiece, integrated recoil lug, and M-LOK slots from forend to grip. Why it matters: mount a bipod, barricade stop, and weights without drilling or aftermarket chassis.
- 20 MOA Picatinny Rail with Integrated Bubble Level – Machined into the action, not bolted on. Why it matters: eliminates shift under recoil and gives you a built-in cant indicator for long-range holds.
- TriggerTech Adjustable Trigger – Factory-set at 2.5 lb, adjustable from 1.5 to 4 lb. Why it matters: crisp, creep-free break with zero take-up – no need to swap for a match trigger.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the competitive shooter who wants a production gun that performs like a semi-custom. It’s built for PRS, NRL Hunter, and long-range steel matches where weight matters and accuracy is non-negotiable. If you’re tired of waiting 12 months for a custom build and want a ready-to-run platform that shoots 0.5 MOA out of the box, the Havak EL M3 is your answer.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Sub-MOA guarantee with match ammo – verified by Seekins with 5-shot groups under 0.75 MOA.
- Pro: Lightweight at 7.2 lbs – easy to carry on mountain hunts or all-day matches.
- Pro: Quick-change barrel system – future-proof for barrel swaps or caliber conversions.
- Con: Stock LOP is fixed at 13.5 inches – shooters with longer arms may need a spacer kit (sold separately).

FAQ
What is the barrel twist rate on the Seekins 0011710357-F?
It’s a 1:8 twist, which stabilizes 7mm PRC bullets from 140 to 180 grains. According to Seekins Precision specs, this twist rate is optimized for heavy-for-caliber projectiles like the 175-grain ELD-X.
Does this rifle come with a muzzle brake?
Yes, it includes the Seekins Hunter muzzle brake, which is threaded 5/8×24. The brake reduces recoil by approximately 40% compared to a bare muzzle. It’s removable if you plan to run a suppressor.
Can I change the barrel caliber later?
Yes. The patent-pending Quick-Change Barrel Collar allows you to swap barrels without a gunsmith. Seekins offers pre-fit barrels in .308 Win, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .300 PRC. You’ll need a barrel vise and a torque wrench – no headspace gauges required.
What is the magazine capacity?
The rifle ships with a 5-round AICS-pattern magazine. Aftermarket 10-round magazines from Accurate-Mag or MDT are compatible.
Is the stock adjustable for length of pull?
The PH3 stock has an adjustable cheekpiece (height and cant), but the length of pull is fixed at 13.5 inches. Seekins sells a spacer kit (PN 0011710400) for shooters who need a longer pull.
