[QUOTE="BillR, post: 448028, member: 462"] Kind of a dumb thought while reading your post. The 7MM-08 is a good cartridge. Sounds like you would like to have a .308 win which is not a heavy recoiling cartridge at all unless your putting it into a very very light rifle. Why not spend the money to buy a Rem 700 VSSFII in .308 Win and build on it. Or a 700 SPS SS 700 in the same caliber. I seen one of those on sale for $509 yesterday and that was brand new. Shooting long range with either of them is not that hard as they both shoot very well and then get some real good optics and put on it. Probably won't cost as much as a custom build in the end and you end up with two rifles rather than one. [/QUOTE]
