Amen brother. I really wish I had bought one of the 700 Lightweight "Tacticals" (as much as I detest that word) when they were closed out by one of my distributors for under $600...

You didn't miss out on anything. I bought one for the exact reasons everyone here thinks it would be a great round for. I got for my son who was 7 at the time and it was a dog accuracy wise. I tried every possible bullet/powder combo and it was not stellar with anything. Turns out a 308 loaded with h4198 and the 125 nosler BT is a better route to go. I ended up selling the one I had and all the brass and dies. maybe great in a ar, but was a dog for me in a bolt gun.
