The Seekins Havak Element M3 .308 Win Urban Shadow rifle from Seekins Precision (brand part no. 0011710331-F) is a short-action bolt gun chambered in .308 Winchester, finished in the Urban Shadow colorway and fitted with a threaded 20-inch barrel and a 5/8×24 Hunter Brake. Seekins builds the Element around a lightweight aluminum and steel hybrid action, a Seekins carbon composite Mini Chassis and a carbon-fiber-wrapped 20-inch barrel with a 416R stainless steel core, which and Seekins lists this configuration at 6.7 pounds. It is built for hunters who cover ground, from timber and mountain stands to open range work, and the 60-degree bolt throw and tool-less bolt disassembly keep it quick to run and easy to service in the field. The Mini Chassis carries an integrated bubble level, an integrated 20 MOA Picatinny scope base, four integrated QD sling flush cups, an adjustable comb and full-length M-LOK.
