[QUOTE="AUnate, post: 512870, member: 34332"] New member, first post. Im planning on purchasing a rifle in the 7mag/300 mag range for future hunts out west (and maybe elsewhere i.e. Ak down the road). I have a Tikka in 7-08, which I love, and was leaning towards another from this brand. My question is would you trust a hunt that you may only experience once every few years to this rifle? I love mine, and it works well for the South Alabama woods, but then again, my back-up rifle is just a few miles down the road. I'm just not sold on the plastic parts and what might happen in rocky, mountainous terrain, or the elements. My other choices are savage 114, or a winny model 70. (sidenote, I own a 270 wsm savage 16 and 270 winny model 70 from 1992 already. Only requirement is SS barrel. thanks Nate [/QUOTE]
