    For 7 mm enthusiasts

    Browning High Wall I've always liked the looks of the Brownimg High Wall. Been looking at one in 7 rem mag with a view towards a re chamber to 7 STW, or possibly the new Nosler 28. Anyone out there have any info on the high walls accuracy potential etc. it has an octagonal 28" barrel & seems...

    Browning High Wall

    Currently I have a Sendero SF in 7mm STW. I've always liked the looks of the Brownimg High Wall. Been looking at one in 7 rem mag with a view towards a re chamber to 7 STW. Anyone out there have any info on the high walls accuracy potential etc. it has an octagonal 28" barrel & seems like it...

    I just came home from watching the "American Sniper" movie.

    Good movie. Great book. True to form.

    7 stw deer hunting

    I agree with Wild Rose. Too tough for white tail for the most part. I've taken several with 139 gr SSTs. Dropped in their tracks. 30 yds out to 575 yds. 140-150 gr. class seems to be more than enough. I want to give the sirocco II a try next. Heard good things about them as well.

    7mm STW Reloading Thread

    Have had excellent results with Hornady 139 SSTs, 162 A Max, as well as Sierra's 150 SMK, and168 SMK out of my Sendero SF. Looking to try the new Nosler ABLR in 150. Load data seems a bit scarce. Bill

    7mm STW Brotherhood - For those who shoot the 7mm Shooting Times Westerner

    Saw that rig, or an identical one on Gunbroker; I was very tempted. It is truly awesome and your nightforce makes it perfect. Enjoy! Bill

    Beginner To Long Range - rifle, caliber, scope?

    Savage long range hunter should work in either300 win mag or short mag. Don't know about your scope preferences but for 1000 yd say 24x or so. Check out SWFA. There are a number of good threads and polls here as we'll that may prove useful.

    Hunting with a suppressors (aka-silencer) question?

    15 years ago it would not happen around here either. Out taking care of some grateful farmer's woodchuck problems nowadays and someone who moved up from NYC area a mile away has there tranquility disturbed and all of a sudden the police are involved. No good for hunter or farmer. Just a hassle...

    scope for the poor man

    I think hands down the Vortex is your best bet; just have to sacrifice your wish to have 24+ mag. You'll be very pleased, it's a good scope!

    Hunting with a suppressors (aka-silencer) question?

    Would cut down on noise complaints to police from the non/anti hunting community.

    scope for the poor man

    There are a number of good choices as long as they meet your specs. Lot of good sales on right now too. Bill

    scope for the poor man

    I think Swift would be a step up from BSA. You can check them (Swift 8-32x50 Premier Rifle Scope) at SWFA. Recoil shouldn't be a problem with your gun. You might check out some other brands as well. A dimmer sight picture at high magnification will probably be the biggest drawback but that is...
