Nice rig, nice scope. I am not a fan of indicator placement can get in a way of spinning knobs.

No not really I have just broke in the barrel and fired one four shot group that was in the low .2's with 38.5 grains of VV550 and 40grain Bergers in a 15 mph cross wind. As barrel life will be short I will see if it repeats those results and just shoot it.

You just made my day! I wanted a stock that looks very similar in colour to yours, and a couple of weeks ago I ordered 45% Black, 30% Dark Gray, 25% Wht. I think that'll work! Nice rifle, BTW!
Anybody who seriously concerns themselves with the adequacy of a Big 7mm for anything we hunt here short of brown bear, is a dufus. They are mostly making shidt up. Crunch! Nite-nite!

I just ordered yesterday 40 black/40 light gray/20 white. I think I'll like it too.

Here is a 4 shot group from today. The single shot away from the others was the fouling shot from a cold clean barrel.

That's nice!!! I just got the pieces together for a McClassic 22-250AI. I promised no more builds this year, but next year maybe an A-5 to match . This just provides motivation. George

super nice rig. I like the colors on the stock as well.
I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....
