[QUOTE="ofbandg, post: 1447866, member: 91402"] Like many of you who have suggested it I, too, am a Remington fan. I made up a 7-08 on my modified Mohawk action a few years ago with a 21 inch Hart stainless barrel and some custom work on the 600 trigger. I couldn't find an aftermarket trigger for these rifles and aftermarket stocks are rare so I had to make one, but the results were spectacular as a lightweight, accurate and tough hunting rifle. It especially likes the 139 grain GMX and puts them out at just under 2900fps, which makes it fine for all manner of deer and sheep. Saving a half pound with titanium or gaining a shorter throw with a 60 degree bolt would be nice, particularly if you need fast follow up shots, but it is seldom worth the extra cash. [/QUOTE]
