66, been shooting 7 mags since the late 60's, BAR's, Rem 700's, Browning A bolts, and one savage 116.
175g Nosler long range with R#26, Fed 215's is worth building a rifle around, or just shoot a Remington. Family has killed over 300 deer here in the South over the years with the 160g Sierra btsp, with 61g of IMR 4831 with a cci 250.
We put Gentry muzzle breaks on all our 7 Mags. It is unusual to find a bedded, free floated, Rem 700 with a brake that will not shoot with the bullets touching at 100 yards with many loads.
