[QUOTE="firstshot425, post: 907289, member: 74016"] [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]I am having a new Bartlein 7mm barrel chambered in 7mm-08 and put on my Rem 700 action. This will primarily be a hunting rifle; however, I do like to punch paper in the off season for load development, like to shoot those little bug hole groups, and want the rifle to be as accurate as possible.
