Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Mountain/Backpack rifle - mid - longer range

So glad I dropped back. Some great pictures and stories. Where else can I get first hand accounts, stories and photos from charming hogs in TX, cattle operations and farming on the plains of MT, to all the great outdoors has to offer in the great NW and AK.

Not much to offer photo-wise, but this guy is undergoing a transformation into a 6mm Creed. The Model 7s are certainly compact, but unlike a short action 700, you are confined by the factory mag box. I didn't research, but I imagine there's not much in the way of bottom metal options. That said, I intended to stick with the BDL configuration an avoided some cost by foregoing Cerecote, fluting, and a custom trigger.

Specs are to be:
Model 7 Stainless action
Schneider #2 barrel, threaded at the end (for the future quiet game)
Bansner High Tech Stock
Bolt fluted and skeletonized by Karl
Gre-tan firing pin
Trigger tuned by 805
Leupold 2.5-8 w/B&C reticle



Ah, hell, how about a few random photos from over the years:
