[QUOTE="J Doss, post: 1636922, member: 109284"] I understand your gun itch, have em quite regular myself. You said you have a 7 Rem Mag that you've hunted with for a while. You are comfortable with it. A "go to" gun by all accounts for big game. I have a old model 70 in 7RM that I bought used in the early 80's that has been my primary hunting rifle. If you are looking to get something new to play with why not go with the 6.5 PCR over the deal on the Nosler? You already have a flat shooting heavy rifle in your 7mm. By going with the 6.5, you won't have to deal with the extra recoil of the 26, the throat issues, the larger case capacity and having to get rid of it at some later date. Me, I like playing with a rifle that shoots well but didn't punish me for playing. If your wanting a backup for your 7mm, then the 26 might be my choice. I haven't got into the newer 6's and 6.5's much. I have bought and traded for some of the newer LR caliber rifles but never kept one long enough to play with it a lot. It all depends on what you might use it for, hunting, backup, targets or dual purpose. Good Luck on your choice. [/QUOTE]
