Any of y’all shot one in a Remington Model Seven? What did you think of it in that package?

I haven't, but I have shot a Kimber 84M hunter which is almost the same package, maybe a pound lighter.

It shot and handled well, but I didn't shoot anything past 100 with it.

Buckhunter2 ended up with that rifle, and I think he shot it out past 200.

I have shot a Model 7 in .260Rem, Wish I had that rifle back.

Yes, it is. My challenge with the Model 7 is that you will find one that is the advertised weight, and the next one is a pound heavier.

Drop it into an AG composites carbon fiber stock.

I’ve only had four of them, but I’ve never experienced different weights.

If this 6CM thing works out I’ll have a tikka 6.5 and howa alpine 6.5 up for grabs soon. But I’m keeping the straight bill hats that came with them.

Have you shot either one out of a Model Seven?

No-

I’m a Remington fan but their QC has slipped dramatically in the last few years. I’d rather spend my money and time on other rifles than current production Remingtons.

The thread is about Remington Model Sevens chambered in 6.5CM.

My bad! You must have forgotten this is Aldeer, where the thread never stays on topic for more than 3 post.

I’m just glad to see you learned something from yesterday’s discussions😉

Maybe I’ll still have a tikka for sale when you tire of tinkering with that remmy.

I wouldn’t own a Tikka, if you gave it to me. I’ve never had to tinker with a Remington to get it to shoot.

I figured with all the 6.5CM love that surely someone had shot one in a Model Seven.

I guess not, yet.

Tikka rifles need trigger work to correct the cycle only on fire defect. Other than that, they are decent. A good stock makes the Lite series better.

They got it right the first time. They only fire when your booger picker hits the bang switch.

So typical coming from an aubie boo boo head. Handle one rifle and completely trash the entire brand loco

Matt, you know you can't stir up the Tikka girls. They're more sensitive than Gheymoor or 270 shooters. 😀
