Looking to buy a new rifle in 7mm Rem Mag. Curious if anyone has any input on the topic would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve had a couple of Weatherby vanguards and I’ve liked them.
 I’ve never had a browning x bolt, but I understand they’re fine gun.

I personally for my 7mag went with a Christensen Ridgeline, and it’s a very good shooting gun

Man ive got an xbolt in .270. Tack driver. Everytime i go to sight in that rifle I fire it 3xs and I'm 1.5" high at 100 yards, dead on at 200 and 2.5" low at 300. This is shooting 137gr. My go to rifle for deer. Love it.

I know its not the 7mm but if the 270 shoots this well then I'd have no doubt the 7mm shoots just as well.

Have both and there is no comparison, the X-Bolt is very superior!

Xbolt! But if you’re planning on putting a suppressor on make sure you get one with 5/8x24 threads.
Shut up and Hunt!
