Not entirely true. Margin requirements on oil futures is rather low, if they raised those requirements (what someone has to put down vs borrow to buy the contract) you would see the price come down. They raised the margin requirements on silver, the price dropped from nearly $50 an ounce to the...

Very well said!!

Picked up the rifle yesterday from a small dealer near us, Legacy Firearms. Based on the prices I've seen online I think I got a great deal and it took him less than a week to get the gun. Most online places were oos. I really like supporting local dealers and Ron was terrific to deal with...

Congrats, really nice rifle. I was so close to buying one then went for the Winchester model 70 extreme weather in 7mm rem mag (we pick it up tomorrow). Definitely post your experience with it, there is always room for another in my safe :D congrats on the new rifle!!!

It's an SP1. I'll have to dig up some pics, we were shooting it this past summer.

I'll have to get the exact model. Other than being a very low serial number and being in perfect condition there is nothing special about it. I'll continue to keep it in a safe.

I have the opportunity to buy a a Colt AR-15, serial number is just under 1800. It's in perfect condition, under 1000 rounds through it. What's a rifle like this worth?

I'm still looking but right now it looks like I'm going to put a Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14x44 Rapid-Z 800 on it

Hopefully we'll be shooting it next week. Dropped my son off at hockey and stopped in a local gun shop to kill some time. Walked out with a 1910 Savage 99 in 303 Savage and a box of 20 rounds. It was so pretty, I just couldn't help myself. We'll be shooting this one over the weekend.

7mm Rem Mag

Thanks for all the replies. I placed the order today, my local shop had a tough time finding one but came through for me. Should have the rifle in a couple of days. I'm still looking but optics wise it looks like I'm going to put a Zeiss Conquest 4.5-14x44 Rapid-Z 800 on it.

My son has been borrowing a Rem 700 7mm Rem Mag from my neighbor, it's time to get him his own long range rifle. I was thinking carefully about a Winchester model 70 Extreme Weather, seems to get good reviews. I was also thinking about a Savage 111 All Weather. Although we shoot a lot we're...

Dasher wrote back, its a 9lb rifle, too heavy. So I'm back to my original choices, Cooper or Rifles Inc.

Should I consider this as well? http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f25/new-custom-7-rem-mag-sale-79928/ I don't know enough about custom rifles.
