When you're getting into precision shooting, your rifle is just one piece of the puzzle. Optics, ammunition, bipods, bags, and even your own shooting skill all play a role in how well you'll perform. The PPR is just one example of a rifle that's built to support your goals, but the same principles apply no matter what gear you choose: Start with the right foundation.
For this evaluation, we focused on 100-yard groups and chrono data. The PPR used for testing is chambered in 6mm GT, a cartridge primarily used by reloaders but also available in factory loads from Hornady (a proud PRS sponsor) and Eagle Eye Precision. We tested both brands, shooting 10-round groups and analyzing the results with the Hornady 4DOF app for deeper insights.
If you're new to shooting, we recommend sticking to five-round groups for better concentration and consistency.
Across multiple ammo types and bullet weights, the GA Precision PPR delivered strong, consistent results. Group sizes were tight, with little variation in point of impact between different loads, a sign of a well-built rifle that can handle a range of setups.
Here's the key takeaway: Rifle performance is only part of the equation. Your results will also depend on your shooting skill, the accessories you use, and your ability to stay consistent behind the rifle.
The GA Precision PPR is a strong contender for anyone getting started in precision rifle shooting. Whether you're looking to compete in PRS matches, hone your skills at the range, or just shoot more consistently, investing in a quality rifle from the start makes a difference.
So what's next? Pick a brand, sign up for training, and start practicing. Whether it's the GA Precision PPR or another trusted platform, consistency starts with quality, and the willingness to put in the work.
