[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1245146, member: 30902"] I have several Sendero's, the varmint version of the Sendero as well, the VSSFII and I recently bought one of the special runs of 5R's. [url]https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/719010011/REM+700+SS+5R+260+24TB+MZ+4[/url] Out of all of them this rifle and the VSSFII .220 Swift are the most accurate. This model is actually all stainless but has a black cerekote as well and they come threaded with a thread protector installed. If I were going to buy another 300wm I'd buy it in this same version. Both the 7mm Rem and the 300wm will do what you are wanting but the 300wm does it with more authority and energy. The nicest thing about the 300wm is that unless you shoot it hot and just keep shooting and do so regularly it's nearly impossible to shoot it out. I know guys who have put several thousand rounds through them without any appreciable loss of accuracy. Polished stainless looks cool but the matte black finish is much more practical in the field and you won't get busted by the sun reflecting off of it. One other worth mentioning is the Ruger Hawkeye FTW. It's a good bit lighter and thus more sensible to carry on a long day in the woods and I'm extremely pleased with how well the one I bought, also in .260 shoots. It too is available in 300wm. [url]https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/719007676/Ruger+300WM+24TB+MSS+NGC+3+L[/url] I like this one well enough I'm giving serious consideration to picking one up in .375Ruger as well.
