    .260 load

    My best quick load out of my Model 7 20" barrel was 45.5 grains of W760 behind the 120 grain Sierra pro hunter and the 123 grain Hornady Amax speed of 2850 fps. This was only 1/2 grain under Quickload maximum so you would need to work up to that.

    Hunting in New Zealand for Tahr and Chamois

    Probably going to be a fair bit of snow in May, best bet is get a chopper on a short haul lift and you will get accurate info on animal numbers as well. Try James Scott he's one of the good guys.

    Yep I wouldn't shoot a centre fire without one now, in saying that I still have 3 to get threaded a .243 a .257 and a custom 30:06 AI which I wont get done it's worth to much:) Felt recoil in the .243 and .257 is more than in the suppressed magnum and other big calibre rifles. Below my 7/08...

    Since someone was talking 8 MM and FN Mauser on classic stocks, I'm doing one as well. I know the front Schnabel looks bit blocky but I could only work with what I had, an old Parker hale stock and the front sling stud will screw in there anyway
