Seekins built its name on rifles that shoot like customs without the custom wait, and the HAVAK Element M3 is the next step in that story. This one comes chambered in 7mm Backcountry, the high-pressure cartridge designed to squeeze magnum-level velocity out of shorter barrels, which makes the 22 inch tube here a smart pairing. The barrel itself is a carbon fiber wrapped 416R stainless steel unit with a 1:8 twist, so it stabilizes the heavy, high-BC bullets that make this cartridge worth shooting in the first place. Up front you get a 5/8×24 threaded muzzle wearing a hunter-style brake, ready to swap for your suppressor whenever you like.
The heart of this rifle is the aluminum and steel hybrid action that made the original Element famous for shaving weight where other actions carry it. The M3 update adds a three-lug bolt with a 60-degree throw, which keeps your knuckles off the scope and cycles noticeably faster than the old 90-degree design. The bolt pulls apart without tools for easy cleaning, and the patent-pending quick-change barrel collar means barrel and caliber swaps are on the table down the road. There is also an integrated 20 MOA Picatinny rail with a built-in bubble level, so mounting glass for long pokes is simple and you can check your cant before the shot.
The PH3 carbon composite stock rounds out the package with an adjustable cheek riser for proper eye alignment behind bigger optics, plus full-length M-LOK for bipods, ARCA adapters, or whatever your setup calls for. The Woodland Shadow finish looks sharp and blends into timber country well. Feeding comes from a 3-round carbon fiber magazine for a 3+1 total, and the TriggerTech trigger adjusts from 2.5 to 5 pounds so you can dial in a break that suits your style. If you have been eyeing 7mm Backcountry for elk or mule deer across big country, this is one of the better-thought-out platforms to launch it from.
Yes, that is one of the big draws of the M3 generation. Seekins added a patent-pending quick-change barrel collar to the action, so barrel swaps no longer require a trip to a gunsmith with a barrel vise and action wrench. Combined with the toolless removable three-lug bolt, it makes this one of the more modular hunting rifles out there.
It will. The 1:8 twist on this barrel is spec'd specifically for the long, heavy-for-caliber bullets that 7mm Backcountry was designed around, including the 170 to 195 grain high-BC loads. That is exactly what you want for long-range work on elk and mule deer.
The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24, which is the standard pattern for most 30 caliber and 7mm suppressors and mounts. It ships with a hunter-style muzzle brake installed, so you can run the brake to tame recoil or spin it off and attach your can. Worth noting that 7mm Backcountry was designed to perform well from shorter barrels, so the 22 inch tube keeps overall length reasonable even with a suppressor attached.
Yes, it comes with a TriggerTech trigger that is user adjustable from 2.5 to 5 pounds. TriggerTech's frictionless release design gives a crisp, clean break with essentially zero creep. Most hunters run it toward the lighter end for precision work, but you have plenty of range to set it where you are comfortable.
