Mine's a 7-08 as well. Nice rifle. That particular rifle happens to be sporting a cracked Warne ring as pictured. The rifle itself, though the spring is pretty contorted, has never had an issue (though it did have to go back to rebraze the bolt handle.)
I have had springs get sluggish a couple of times and that 30-30, mostly just sitting in the scabbard, has come in handy more times than I would have guessed for such a 'has-been'. 170 Core-lokts have no corners on 'sexy' but they sure get the job done.
