Patience, took him 61 years to embrace a single digit twist rate. And 'embrace' isn't really the right word�Im using one�but it doesn't do any better than my double digit twist�. Shoot 75's in it...

If you're somewhat handy a HTS can be a deal I went ADL and don't know if I'd do it again on a Seven. The forearm is a bit chunky for the factory barrel profile. Here are more pics if you want of my Faux-tucky http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/6485640/Faux_tuckyfinished at 24 oz with a 0.6" Pach pad

I'd opt for a Hunter's Edge, not sure the name of the company that makes them. Steelhead, I think that same company makes a KS with Edge fill for a Model 7, if you remember the name fire off a post. So senile anymore... DMc

Just curious, as I picked a Seven in 7mm Rem SAUM up off the classified here with a McM Edge in ADL config and I love it that way personally! I will say that I think the Edge forearm looks too fat on a skinny bbl'ed Seven too. I dropped a 243 into the same stock to check it out and just didn't look right to me... I will most likely order a McM Seven pattern with Edge fill for that one, but I'll be watching this thread for other ideas.

I could have used a trigger guard without a front screw and solved the 'problem' but I epoxied a small nut in the stock and went with a standard trigger guard. It took up room in the box and was generally a pain but it works. It is a joy to carry and shoot.

When using a short bbl, you need to find a stock with a short forend. A forend that is less than half the bbl length looks right.

I'm trying to visualize a zebra-striped Edge?? Ingwe has stock painting plans. I know he's simply not too cheap to buy a McMurderer or McCellan, or whatever that Mc stock is...
