Who builds Rachel Precision PRS rifles?

Rachel Precision is a precision rifle builder in Canton, Mississippi, building custom PRS and NRL centerfire rifles. Randy Rachel has been a machinist for more than 40 years, and he chambers, threads, trues and beds every rifle in his own shop.

The record is public. In the 2023 season, 3 of the top 200 PRS Open shooters ran rifles built by Rachel Precision (Precision Rifle Blog, 2024). Jeff Guerry, 4th in Open at the 2026 IPRF World Championship, has run about 20 of Randy's barrels, and his 6 Dasher match rifles are chambered here (XLR Industries, 2023). In 2025 he won seven regular-season PRS Pro Series matches, a first in the series (Precision Rifle Blog, November 2025).

Actions

Which actions do we build PRS rifles on?

Most of our PRS builds start on an Impact Precision 737R, a Lone Peak Arms Fuzion or a Zermatt Arms action. All three use the Remington 700 footprint, so they drop into MDT, MPA, Foundation and Manners stocks and take Bix'n Andy and TriggerTech triggers.

We stock the Impact 737R, 777R, 787R and NBK, the Lone Peak Fuzion in steel and titanium, the Curtis Scout and the Pierce titanium action. If you'd rather build on the action you already own, we true and blueprint factory actions too.

The build

What goes into a Rachel Precision PRS rifle?

Every build is specced with you, and every operation happens in our shop.

Action
An Impact, Lone Peak, Zermatt or Curtis action from our shelf, or yours, trued and blueprinted before the barrel goes on.
Barrel
A match blank from Brux, Krieger, Bartlein, Benchmark, CRB or Muller Works, chambered with our True Bore Alignment setup, then threaded and crowned.
Chassis or stock
MDT, MPA, Foundation, Manners or McMillan. We set weight and balance for barricades and positional stages, and fit it to you.
Trigger
A Bix'n Andy or TriggerTech, single or two stage, set to the pull you want.
Muzzle device
A Hawkins Tank ST or ACE brake, or a muzzle threaded for your suppressor.
Bedding and assembly
Glass bedding where the stock calls for it, headspace and torque checked, and the rifle assembled and inspected before it ships.
Delivery
The finished rifle ships to your FFL dealer. Then we want to hear how it shot at your first match.

Barrels

Which barrels and twist rates do we use for PRS?

We chamber match blanks from Brux, Krieger, Bartlein, Benchmark, CRB and Muller Works. For the 6mm cartridges most PRS shooters run, we stock 1:7.5-twist blanks in 4-groove and 5R, which stabilize the long, heavy match bullets those cartridges are built around.

Length and contour depend on the cartridge, the chassis and how you shoot barricades. We'll talk it through before we order the blank.

Turnaround and pricing

How long does a PRS build take, and what does it cost?

The final number depends on the action, barrel, chassis, trigger, muzzle device and optic. Most of the parts we build with are listed in the shop with current prices, so you can price a build before you call.

FAQ

What do shooters ask about PRS builds?

Call (601) 573-2753

Who builds the best PRS rifles?

There’s no independent ranking of PRS rifle builders, so nobody can honestly claim the title. What Rachel Precision can show you is the record. In the 2023 season, 3 of the top 200 PRS Open shooters ran rifles built by us (Precision Rifle Blog, 2024). Jeff Guerry, 4th in Open at the 2026 IPRF World Championship (March Scopes, 2026), has run about 20 of our barrels, and his 6 Dasher match rifles are chambered here (XLR Industries, 2023). Judge the work by that.

Which actions do you build PRS rifles on?

Impact Precision (737R, 777R, 787R and NBK), Lone Peak Arms (Fuzion and Fuzion Ti), Zermatt Arms, Curtis Custom (Scout) and Pierce titanium actions. All use the Remington 700 footprint. We also true and blueprint factory actions if you want to build on what you have.

Which cartridges do you chamber for PRS?

6 Dasher, 6 GT, 6 Creedmoor, 6.5 Creedmoor and .308 Winchester are the common ones, and we cut plenty of others. Tell us what you shoot and we’ll spec the reamer, twist and freebore around it.

What is True Bore Alignment?

True Bore Alignment is how we set a barrel up in the lathe. We center the chamber on the exact centerline of the bore, so the bore and chamber are concentric. The bullet travels straight from the case into the rifling, shot placement stays consistent, and pressure stays even inside the chamber, which cuts down on wear.

Can you rebarrel or blueprint the rifle I already own?

Yes. We rebarrel custom actions and Remington 700-pattern rifles, and we true and blueprint factory actions. Call (601) 573-2753 with your action, chassis and the barrel you want, and we will quote the price and timeline.

Do I need an FFL to buy a complete rifle or an action?

Yes. A complete rifle or a bare action is a firearm under federal law, so we ship it to a licensed dealer (FFL) near you. Your dealer emails us a copy of their license, and you complete the transfer and background check there. Barrels, chassis, triggers and optics ship straight to you.

Do you build .22LR rifles for PRS Rimfire and NRL22?

Yes. We build .22LR match rifles on the Zermatt Arms RimX, and three members of the 2025 U.S. Precision Rifle Rimfire Team shoot Rachel Precision rifles: John Boyken, Matt Stiner and Dakota Wright. See our PRS .22LR rifle page, or call (601) 573-2753.

Testimonials

What do PRS shooters say about Randy's work?

In their own words, from the people who shoot our barrels.

“I'm probably easily 20 barrels in with all the variants we have tried, and even the worst barrel was capable of winning any PRS match out there.”
Jeff Guerry Team USA, 2026 IPRF World Championship · Chattanooga, Tennessee
