Decided to do a facelift on my model 7 chambered in 7-08. I wanted to match my custom 700 chambered in .300 WM. Was going to rebarrel but the factory tube shoots plenty good for what I do with it. Kampfeld Customs fluted the bolt, I done the rest. Can't wait till deer season to get it bloody.

You know the golf ball effect makes it cycle faster and smoother. LOL.....I try to do something different on my rifles and I've never seen that done before.

Got a mill, eh? smile

Is it a J-lock? That's the one thing... well, one of the things... I'd like to change on my M7. Last time I googled I didn't see a replacement available from the usual suspects.


The CENTER will hold.

I'd rock that... in fact, I have one that's close... ADL SS barreled action in a Mickey Mountain Rifle with a 3-9x Conquest. I had to run Leupy DDs, though, as I can't get a Conquest far enough forward.

No flutes or bowling ball, though. At least not yet on the flutes.

Jeff_O, I got a replacement for a J-lock from Gre'-Tan Rifles...complete assembly that weighed significantly lighter than the original.

Looks great, you've got some skills.

I cannot understand why Rem. dropped the stainless M7.

Or why they don't offer it in .250 and 257 RBTS
