[QUOTE="100percent, post: 3057395, member: 110347"] I love a Remington Model 7!!! I remember lusting for a 7mm -08 at the local hardware store when they came out! I’ve had a few and have rebarreled as many—-tinkering! 😜 The limiting factor with a Model 7 is COAL. Whatever you decide has to be >2.85 to shoot as a repeater (if memory serves). 6xc would certainly be an option with 105vld @ 2.76”at proper seating depth. 243 with same puts you at +/- 2.96. I currently have a magnum version in 6.5 SST that is off the charts accurate and speedy too! It started as a 300 SAUM then a 300 WSM then a 6.5 REM Mag on to the SST as a result of having to shoot light for caliber bullets due to limited COAL. I hope you have as much fun without the frustration I’ve endured! [/QUOTE]
