Damn guys, this should be a sticky. When I started this thread, I hoped Rick Bin would make it one since it seems fitting. Well, I got bored and slapped my Stainless classic sporter 7mm Rem mag in my brown stone texture painted stock off of my 30-06 (new haven). I switched the scope out since I wanted something a little lighter and went with a leupold VX1 4-12x40 with long range duplex reticle. In all, my 7mm lost 1/2 a pound and looks better in the process. I'll bet she still shoots lights out too grin.....:
