[QUOTE=".300 Dakota, post: 2565153, member: 106514"] Jon, most members may be tired of this thread, but I'm doubling down! I just purchased a Model 100 XT in 7mm Rem Mag. If I'm REALLY lucky, it MIGHT be here by the end of the upcoming week. If it isn't, it will be 2 weeks before I can get it picked up from the dealer. Going to purchase some 168gr VLD Hunting bullets as we speak, and have plenty of Nosler brass on the way that I found on sale for a whopping $84.99/50 early last week. I will seat those on the lands on top of MRP and a Federal Gold Medal Match LR Mag primer. According to Berger's ballistics calculator, down here at sea level I'm good to well beyond 1000yds with that combo depending on final muzzle velocity. ...And the best part is, I bought it for $444 (plus shipping, plus tax, plus plus plus!) It will end up a large Coke at the movies short of $550 transferred and sitting in my safe. It has previously been titled, but unfired and delivered with DNZ 2-piece ring mounts from an estate sale.😎 I am anxious to see if I have as good luck as you've had with yours! [/QUOTE]
