The problem I had with the Model 7 I had was the mag length was far too short and the throat too long to seat the 6.5/120g bullets (260 Remington) out close to the lands like I wanted them. Due to this, I never could get it to shoot as well as I wanted so it went down the road. I have other rifles that will shoot the heavier bullets and I wanted the 260 as a coyote rifle. Just didn't work out for me. With a rebarrel and the right dummy round for the smith to use, he could set it up for any round you want to load IMO....


Never underestimate your ability to overestimate your ability.
