[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 849358, member: 30902"] It'll do but I'd take the 7mm Rem Mag over it any day. You're only talking about an oz or two difference in weight and getting vastly superior performance with extremely tolerable recoil especially if you stick with the 140-150gr bullets and of course a good brake eliminates it as a consideration at all. The .264wm also fits in there very well under the same conditions. There are several of them on GB now in the 700 CDL SF and a couple of nice stainless/synthetic model 70's as well. The 7mm Rem is just a great "do it all" kinda rifle round and is one of my all time favorites. I that same case size though .308 the .260 rem is the "go to" for light to med recoil, lightweight rifle, and if you can find one in the 700 CDL platform they are just beautiful rifles that shoot extremely well with just some basic accurizing, at least as far as those I've owned, shot, or seen. They are a bit pricey though compared to other models. [/QUOTE]
