Should shave another 400grams with the new carbon stock

Plus with a (superior) model 7 you get a drop box max not a silly plastic mag you have to take out and load bullets into. You also get at true short action not a long action with a short bolt stop. Model 7's really are underrated in this country.

I still own my .308 Model 7, 16.5" barrel, DPT can, Swaro 3-9x33 scope, talley ultra low rings..... Can't be beat.
