While they are very similar, 700 parts are like a 350 Chevrolet motor. Model seven is shorter overall. Does require a specific stock, trigger and scope mounting. Advantage? No I guess not really enough for the trouble. A 300 savage on a model seven action with a 20 in mountain rifle contour barrel cut at 20" in a good handle would be awesome woods rifle.

That's what had me thinking of something like this.

Woods rifle generally from a stand or natural ground blind. Shots under 50 yards 99% of the time.

Love this thread. đź‘Ť

Mine has been through some iterations as I think I’ve said here in past years. Started as a LSS in 7-08 that was an impulse buy at a local BiMart; it was a special order the original guy had bailed on. My gain! It was “ok” but not very accurate and after buying a Mountain Rifle in 7-08, which IS accurate, I had Pac-Nor rebarrel the Model 7 to .358, but as it was my first rebarrel I biffed and spec’d a numbered profile, complete with long shank. Hogged out the laminate stock to fit it, and ran it that way for years; it actually had many redeeming qualities, including a certain stable solidity in the hand due to the extra weight. Decided to mess with success and pulled the barrel off and had them re-profile it to a Rem Sporter to make it easier to use aftermarket stocks. This is the result.

20” barrel, B&C Alaskan stock, has the stock trigger adjusted to about 3 lbs, which is heavier than my “precision” rifles but perfect for this one where things happen at close range and drenched in adrenaline, haha… Swaro 3-10x42 in Talleys. I love this rifle. Currently running 200-gn Accubonds at around 2650 fps with RL7.

What are the deets?

FS model. Brown precision stock, Leupold 3-9x33 in DD mounts, .308. Weighs 6.2 pounds as pictured. It's a joy to carry.

Put this one in a youth stock I picked up from someone on here. Kiddo put it to good at the end of last season.

Anyone know the weight difference between the Model 7 with factory Tupperware stock vs the 7 with the H-S Precision stock?


I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

My bedded factory Tupperware is 36.5oz. HS Precision that came from the factory on my kids 300 bo model 7 is 37.2 unbedded.

Thanks LSU. Contemplating the H-S as a replacement for the Tupperware stock my Model 7 currently wears.

The old pebble finish tupperware was indeed heavy. The later sps-style tupperware was/is about 10oz lighter.
