mart,
There is NO "advantage" of a Blued/Walnut Seven,over a Montana. That in balance/handling,weight,twist rate,ergo's,throating,scope mounting or durability. Read that again.
Now to cripple those inherent heavy concessions even further,you've added schit mounts and schit glass...which is THE Dirtiest Of Tricks. Only move left in order to connect all of the Hilarity Dots,is to feed it some schit brass,schit powder and schit bullets,which also seem to be of keen interest to you.
Punt while you can and thank me later.
Hint...............
I guess I'm behind the power curve here. I didn't remember asking how blued, walnut Seven compared to anything else. I bought the rifle because it was a good deal and it will serve my wife well for fur hunting. As for the scope and mounts, the rifle is just as I bought it. I didn't buy it for the glass or mounts, and in fact I'll probably change them out. And your brass and bullets comment has me scratching my head.
