But, to answer the question: My Grandpa's Remington Model 700 chambered in Rem 7mm Mag.

Sat in my safe for a while and finally on a whim replaced the old wooden stock with a new McMillians composite stock, put one some Tally LP rings, a Loopy 6x42 with an M1 turret and had Jim Cloward do a trigger job on it.

(blue tape has since been replaced with red - this is an older photo)

Damn thing kicks like there's no tomorrow and is a beast of a gun to shoot. But, it does shoot well. It will remain in my collection for ever....even if I never do take it out on hunts any more.


Nice Paker.
There's just something fundamentally correct about a Model 700.
Love 'em.

I might have to see Uncle Bart about hotrodding a .280 into a .280 Ackley or mebbe a 28 Nosler.
There's a 1909 Argentine in .280 that I've been eye-ballin'.
Hell, with a .280 Ackley I could come on here and wax poetic just like BigStick.

Need to find a clown stock.
