[QUOTE="Oliveralan, post: 449542, member: 20245"] I would go with a mcmillan hunter stock, with an adjustable cheekpiece. Also, don't forget that there is a lot more needed to shoot 700yards than a fast 7mm... Rangefinder, windmeter, ballistic data, and most importantly EXPERIENCE. Now I know you or your father's shooting background. You also need to realize it is extremely difficult to accurately shoot a 7-8lb rifle at long distances like that due to it moving with every little nudge or pressure put on it in any way. Also, a 7mm mag loaded with 168s or 180s will certainly kick harder than a .270, if rifle weight it comparable, so maybe a muzzle brake and some electronic hearing protectors would be a good option.
