I think I need to work on my sales skills because it really is a great rifle that has been looked after very very well. When I say I don't know how many shots I'm guessing its about 500 max in its lifetime. I just don't wanna lead people astray.

nah, it sounds old, (unsure of rounds fired and it was your dads)
and im fairly sure you could get a new one for about that, and its a 270, most would want a 7mm08.

I thought the old remmy's were made better than the new ones? by that I mean I'm pretty sure the new ones are shit aren't they?

7mm08 isn't big in Aus like it is in NZ, so I don't really agree with that justification. I actually only know two people who've owned em to be honest here. In aus people generally have either .270, 308, 3006 or 300WM for deer. The odd person has a 7mmRM or a 338WM but for the most part that's its those common ones.

personally I wouldn't sell my dads old rifle.

7mm08 because we have a bunch of kids in nz and sissys purchasing guns that are intimidated by the power of the mighty .270 and .3006 =)
