So I have this youth model Rem 700, 7-.08, stainless, with an 18" barrel. My son doesn't use it anymore and I'm thinking about the possibilities.
What would my options be with that action? 7-.08 is a great caliber and I wouldn't be opposed to not changing calibers. But right now I have all the boxes checked for rifles shooting bullets from 85-90gr all the way up to 168s. So I'm thinking to go really small or move into the big boys. It's a beautiful action, jeweled bolt and stainless. Rifle hasn't been shot more than 30-40 times since I bought it new.
I'd also consider selling or trading.
I have no idea what kind of velocity I'm getting but it was shooting 120gr factory Nosler BTs at .5-.7" the last time I got it ready for hunting.
So what can I do with this small package?
