Well I'm glad to see at least one of you has the new 700 and likes it. I ordered one last week and should be here any day. Still don't understand how it's super strong, and western is working up a new MAX load chart just for this gun and yet everyone says it will not handle a small smokeless load, like the IMR-4227 That savage recommends for theirs.
The Johnson guy that invented this breech plug, did he invent it for smokeless guns or just BP?
