Awesome rifle really makes me consider keeping my 1955 model 70, ordering an Echols Legend, and sending it off to have something similar done.

Beautifully put together rifle there. My M70 300 H&H/ echols stock is one of my favorite rifles...

I'd probably have to try a 180 Scenar in that with H1000.

Nice rifle! I'm sending a rifle to Mark this afternoon for a new barrel. I've never used him before but he did the original barrel and metalwork on this rifle back in the 80's, and I've not been able to find anyone that has not been pleased with his work and he seems like a great guy from talking to him on the phone.

pathfinder. That is one of the nicest left handed rifles I've ever seen.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Pathfinder loves to hand that one to me.  Being left-handed, he doesn't have the pre-64 option that most of us do. However, that Penrod actioned rifle is smoother than any pre-64 I have ever owned with the exception of my 1954-action Tommy Burgess metal 270. It is just as smooth as my Burgess.
Anybody who seriously concerns themselves with the adequacy of a Big 7mm for anything we hunt here short of brown bear, is a dufus. They are mostly making shidt up. Crunch! Nite-nite!

Too bad, pathfinder can't shoot a right handed rifle like I can  . Nonetheless, a damn nice lefty... I'd use that one in a heartbeat!!
