My first big game rifle was a stainless Ruger paddle stock 7mm mag and I loved it. I thought it was the hammer of Thor and used it and only it for years and years, from 1996 to 2010ish. Then I found internet forums and realized how wrong I was and that I needed this that or another and sold it. Seven years later I'm realizing I should have just stayed with the 7mm and one rifle and been done with it. I'd have a ton of cash and about 5,000 hours of wasted internet time back.



Remmies are right, at least with 162's and 180 Scenars. Kiss with plenty of room.
