[QUOTE="LVJ76, post: 1601162, member: 108965"] For almost 30 years all I've shot are Remington 700's, I grew up using them for hunting and competition. I do handload and I have not had any issues finding a load that will give me sub MOA accuracy on any of them. I've gone through 6 different ones in 7mm-08 for Silhouette shooting and I'm on my 6th, again all sub MOA accuracy, and by sub MOA I mean five shots at 0.3" or better at a 100 meters, and five shots inder 2.5" at 500 meters. These are Varmint 26" heavy barrel rifles. For hunting I've used a couple of 270's, a 280 rem, and I currently have two 7mm-08's and one 7mm Rem Mag. With handloads I've had sub MOA accuracy on all of them. I've read some complaints about them but I have not had issues with any of them, maybe because I handload or maybe just luck. I do recommend you get the 7mm Rem Mag, it's just plain simply better. Best regards [/QUOTE]
