I have had one since it hit the market years ago. My current one is on a 700 action with a 26 " Douglas. I must have built it about 1990. My favorite is my.300, but the 7 is second. My late wife took it over shortly after I had it built.. It was her favorite of all our rifles. She made some great shots with it over the years from antelope to moose. I still pack it each fall because she liked it so much. With 140 gr. BTBTs is a hammer with Re22. I am going to load 50 more of that load either this fall or next. Probably be the last batch of ammo I load for it. Never figured this over kill stuff, dead is dead. I load my own stuff so it is about as cheap to shoot as any of the larger centerfires.
It has taken, coyotes, antelope, axis deer, whitetails, mulies, black bear, elk, moose and caribou. Great round in a favorite rifle.
