[QUOTE="kiwi3006, post: 385778, member: 8927"] I turned my Rem 700 30/06 into a 7mm mag. I have used it to take deer out to 600 yds so far. I had the bolt face opened up, sako style extractor installed, action trued up to make everything square and a No5 contour 26" barrel fitted. I love it. It has less recoil than the 30/06, but it is heavier. If you don't want to go to a magnum then look at the 280AI or the 6.5/284, although I don't know if you can get factory loads for these two. Stu.
