I can get an older Rem BDL for about $450 so chambered. Factory SA rifle.
How's feeding? How fast will they run 225's, 250's?

My own brief experience - feeds fine from a model 7, like crap from a ruger SS. 2.8" box hurts a bit, but can be made to work. 225 NP and 200 barnes are about the only things you can seat to the lands worth hunting with. 250 RN and SP hornadys work fine but wouldn't reach lands in the 7. BT or Accubomb won't work unless you cut off the tip, which is quite easy.
250 hornadys of either flavor work fine on moose.
You should get 2700+ with 225s and close to 2600 with 250s using R15.

From a 22" barrel. I'm not interested in running 250's....save them for my 35 whelens. The Rem'S 1 in 16 twist pretty much is limited to 250 grainers or lighter (shorter).

Thanks. I use a .358 for deer so I'm a fan of the .35's.
Appreciate the load info.

I have no problems with feeding and 225gn bullets achieve 2700fps with a healthy dose of IMR4895,H4895,IMR4320 or W748 I changed the old Fluer-de-lis chequered stock to a more appealing mid 70's stock. ![[Linked Image]](http://i54.tinypic.com/25k6gw3.jpg)

I'd check to see how loud the safety is and go from there.

My 700 .350 is one of the most consistently accurate rifles I have with 225 NP and IMR4895. No feeding issues.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

Yeah, this has the stock you describe and the (nice, quiet, lol) safety locks the bolt. So it's pretty old.

$450... wow, that's a steal. I have mine now in a Ti stock and I have to say it's the handiest rifle I think I own. It does have the classic 22" barrel too.

Buy it and report back.You can get close to 2800 with TAC & mag. primers.After a bedding job,my model 7 CDL became very accurate.Dropped it into a High Tech with pillars.
