I have thought of getting rid of some of my stuff, but then I miss it.. Also, I will never get the $ back out of the rebarrel jobs, and custom stocks.. So I have decided they will go to my best friend, his son, my namesake, and a couple kids I taught in school.. they aren't eating anything, and I usually get to shoot most of them in the course of a year..
Creek, I haven't messed with the Mashburn, something I have thought of many times.. But I have a Rem. 7, and a custom barreled 7 Wea.. And as you say, it does kick.. I am going to try some 168 grain Bergers next.. But right now it is loaded with 160 Sierra HPBT and Nosler 160 Part.. I guess I could be pretty well satisfied with my big 7 for most of my hunting.. I would pick the Weatherby case though.. The Remington was my wife's big game rifle for the last 10 or 12 years of her life..
For someone who never shot target, she made some excellent shots with that old rifle. No flies on the 7 mags..
