Quite a few years back I used a Rem Mod 7 in 7mm08 as my main rifle. Great rifle for carting around light enough and nice and short. I mostly used 139 gr Hornady and the Barnes 140 gr XLC and...

Ended up with a Marlin 17hmr. As new, old boy brought it and couldn't hit anything with it so it's been in a gun safe for along time. We will see how it shoots.
