I need a Remington 700 7mm Magnum. ADL , BDL , I don't care about condition. My buddy and me are going to rechamber it. So chances are, it probably will be in better condition now.👍
PM me if you wish to part with one.

What are you gonnna rechamber to? Seems like something awesome and abusive to both the shooter and rifle? :chuckle:
just a guess since you don't care about condition.

A " 7.21 Sage ". :o My variant of a 7mm-300 Winchester. There are several versions out there 7mm Practical, 7mm Rouge, 7mm Valkeri to name a few. I had my reamer built to my specks as in my preference for body taper, neck length, shoulder angle etc. If my math is right I should be able to hold right with the 7mm Ultra magnum with a 180gr VLD, using close to 18grs less powder when it comes to Retumbo.

I been working on a wildcat myself - the .17/50BMG

Good little long range varmint cartridge. I can go prairie dog hunting in South Dakota without leaving Washington. Velocities are showing up in the Mach 7-8 range. Takes a really slow powder, though. Right now I'm using ground up Kingsford Briquettes, but am probably going to work up a load using straight anthracite soon.

Here's a reply I read on a forum concerning necking down large powder devouring cartridges, got a good laugh out of the reply.
" That's nothing. I once necked down a 105mm artillery case to .177 caliber. was firing those copperhead pellets at around the speed of light. they would disintegrate, go back in time, kill a dinosaur and then create a wormhole in the space time continuum through which I would then enter an alternate universe as Emperor Xaseilsn, master of all I surveyed. "

I believe jjhunter built a very similar rifle that he hunts with, he doesn't hesitate to shoot 1000 yards if he has to.

I prefer the 190gr 7mm Matrix over the Berger 180 VLD in my heavy short mag, I would like to see how they preform out of the .300 Win mag based chambering.

The 7mm Ultra is still a great chambering, I have crushed some bears with it and the 160gr Accubond. Killed a bunch of Rockchucks with the Accubonds.
Traded the rifle off and now a friends 16 year old son carries it.
Can you tell this pic was taken on the wet side. :chuckle:

I had a great! Black Tail walk right by me that afternoon, this was after he passed me. He was at point blank , he didn't notice me until I took this pic and then he didn't even care. If it had been twenty days later, he would have got smoked HARD! :tup:

To finish it, the wait is going to be on McMillan. I ordered the Adj A3-5 stock 5/1/13 and they are running a ways out. Sometimes they get a few out early.

I'm interested to see how this works out for you. I have the bug for a 7mm, but I can't decide which one. I've been leaning towards either the 7/375 Ruger or the 7mm LRM.

If I can chamber this in a 19" handgun barrel then I'm in! :tup:

I looked at the 7mm LRM, but chose to go the direction I did because I have piles of Norma, Lapua, Winchester and Federal .300 Win Mag brass I have stored away from all the .300's I have shot over the years. Call me sick but when it comes to magnum wildcats, I like the head spacing of the belt thing. :tup:

I bet that will be a barrel burner with the throat erosion. At least you'll now have a portable, back country plasma cutter.
