    Avoid any product that markets to the US patriosim market. Its most likely low end cheap shit.

    caberslash liked post by gimp On thread : model 7 as platform for long range ?
    I used a m7 as it was shorter than most actions so felt like a better fit for a .223 while still being able to fit decent AICS mags. I'd use a 700 clone custom action if building a rifle for a larger...

    190777 That's my 7mm08. Seated to 2.780 and feeds from the mag nicely. Ironically my cheapest yet most accurate rifle

    caberslash liked post by Mathias On thread : model 7 as platform for long range ?
    I built up a Model 7 in 6.5 Creedmoor and could easily use that for long range with the right scope set up to dial. Factory mag length is spot on for this round too, which is one of the reasons for...

    The old felted type swanny is the ultimate 'in close, scrub bush and fern' item. Was standard hunting garb here - black footy shorts, cut down swanny and lace up gumboots

    caberslash liked post by zimmer On thread : Should I buy a Swanndri?
    When Swanndri moved manufacture to China there was a huge amount of negative press. IIRC they tried to counter that by saying the fabric would continue to be made and supplied from NZ so quality...

    Got a few holes down the front probably from hogging a camp fire...but then if you fit a 5XOS you can hog a camp fire anytime you like. 190784

    This is my most favorite swanny type of coat, mate bought it for me off MoW stores about 30 years ago, rat chewed, moth eaten rag it is but I wouldn't go on a fly in bush trip without it, usually...

    The Howa 1500 is a great action and far better that the Mossberg. Much stronger and smoother.

    caberslash liked post by GWH On thread : model 7 as platform for long range ?
    When you say long range rig, for what purpose? If long range hunting was the purpose, particually a mountain type rifle suitable for making LR shots then yes i think a model 7 is suitable. I...

    I have a Model 7 in 260Rem and it shoots very well. I did replace the trigger and stiffen the stock with epoxy, removed the presure bedding at the front of the barrel channel. I also imported a...

    Id say not ideal with a standard barrel on them, some a very small profile (pencil barrel) and most have a short throat. In saying that a lot of guys have made LR rigs work, namely 7SAUMs (guessing...

    In the mid 70's Norma was the loaded ammo. But the projectiles were just too hard. Shooting had to be specific on deer otherwise there was a lot of heart ache. The brass was harder than diamond. I...
