Let's see some Remington Model 7s

Y'all know I'm partial to Remingtons, but especially the Model 7. Even with my long arms I like the quick-handling pointability of the shorter length Seven. Here's my newest, a second-hand 7mm-08 I got at a really good price.



I added a Gre-Tan firing pin assembly (to get rid of the stupid J-lock), HS Precision sporter stock, DNZ scope mount, and like new Leupold VX-3 2.5-8x36. Here's what she looks like now.



Let's see some more Model 7s!

Here's another Model 7 project ... a .223 that I bought in a youth stock. It also needed a new firing pin assembly (PTG) to eliminate a J-lock. Picked up the factory laminate stock on one of the forums. It's amazingly accurate with Fiocchi 50 grain V-Maxes ... so much so that I haven't done any load development for it yet.

That MS is sweet! And congrats to your son. My oldest son (now in his 30s) took his first deer with a Model 7 in .243 when he was in his early teens.

It is. Here's a good article comparing the two actions.

Older (and some current) models have an 18.5-inch barrel, which makes for a very compact package. But even with 20-inch barrels, they are more compact than a 700 SA.

There must be some more out there ...
