About 3 months ago, I lucked into a 1998 built SS .308 that had no more than 20-25 rounds thru it. It looked NIB and of course no J-lock, no "X-Mark Poor" trigger. I put it into a new B&C AWR stock and added a VX2 2-7x33 in Talley ex-lows. Previous owner had the trigger smoothed to a crisp 3 lbs. My first inclination was to have Douglas rebarrel it to 7MM08 since right now I'm .308 poor but after taking it out once and using nothing but Hornaday Am. Whitetail 150s, it shot 2 three shot groups at .78 and .83" after sighting in and settling down. Way adequate for a tree stand whitetail rig. Now that I've pretty much decided to leave this one alone, I'd really like to hear some feedback or better yet, get my hands on a new one as a 7MM08 SS is on the agenda.
