Ended up rebarreling a 270wsm ruger I got cheep to 7mm saum using a $100 rem barrel I bought on TM . Barrel was chopped to 20" and fluted . Shoots under 1" no probs with 150 coreloks over 2209 and 160 nabs over RE19 and RE17. Have been able to get Remington cases ok.
    What made you part with the model 7 out of interest?
