[QUOTE="eastbank, post: 1882244, member: 107151"] i built my dad a light weight 7 mm mauser(6.5 pounds scoped) from a FN 98 mauser with a 3x weaver scope in the mid 60,s as he was 5'4" and 140 lbs and i loaded for it and it never shot moa, but it would put five 154 gr hornady round nose on a quater at 100 yards all day long at 2500 fps and he killed a boat load of deer and a few black bear with it. i was useing a remington 700 in 3006 with 165 gr bullets at 2800 fps and he hated shooting it, saying it just kicked to much for him. he was happy with the 7mm and i had to agree with him the deer-bear he shot were still dead, most with one shot. after his death my sister took it and gave it too her husband who sold it for truck repairs with telling me. i have looked for it since his death in 2007 with no luck and would pay 1000.00 for.
