[QUOTE="BrienM, post: 2655402, member: 117201"] So, I changed my plans a bit. My 7rem mag shoots so well and [USER=123977]@PuckerFactorRiflesWY[/USER] had a great deal going on Origin actions, I bought another action instead of taking my 7 apart. I bedded it (marine tex) in an HS Precision stock with their bottom metal/DBM combo, installed a Jewel trigger and I picked up a used jetblast brake for it. I haven't shot many 208's yet (6 total). I ran 75 165gr tipped game kings and wasn't satisfied so i tried the old 165HPBT sierra and it really came to life. The 208's are a bit long for my throat and I'd rather keep recoil down somewhat in case one of my girls gets on it so it doesn't kick them too bad (may run with no brake during deer season this year for the noise). I may experiment more later with the 208's but since I'm about out of time for deer season, I'm running the 165HPBT Sierra Game Kings. With the 4.5x14 zeiss and no brake it weighed 9.8#. With the S&B+ brake it weighs 11.4#'s. [/QUOTE]
