I have and love two Model Sevens, one in .308, the other in .243. Both are 15+ years old, both have been settled into H.S. Precision replacement stocks, both are light and better-than-hunting-accurate with factory ammo. I keep hearing that newer Remingtons don't have the quality of the older models, but I can't confirm that. I do know that the price of a new Remington would give me pause given that there are other options out there. All that said, I really like my Sevens, and plan to keep them and hand them on to the next generation.
