[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 1678324, member: 9308"] For 1000 yard HUNTING shots, he'll need the 'horsepower', so I was thinking the same thing (.28 Nosler.) If he hadn't said that, I was leaning 7mm RM just because it's a classic cartridge with tons of factory and reload options available. And it won't kick quite as hard. Light rifles in heavy kicking cartridges tend to sit in the safe a lot... As for bottom metal, perhaps this? Hawkins Precision Oberndorf Bottom Metal *CNC-machined *Patented cantilever spring release ensures that the floorplate will not accidentally open under any level of recoil *Made for Remington 700 short action and long action (also available as a kit with action screws and follower) **Long action weighs 2.6oz; short action weighs 2.5oz Go here, then scroll down past the detachable magazine stuff at the top of the page: [URL]https://hawkinsprecision.com/bottom-metal/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
