Model 7 LSS with a 20" Pac-Nor barrel in .358. Zeiss 1.8-5.5x38 in Talleys. And a nice blacktail buck. I'd like to see more pictures of your rifle; it looks great. What barrel contour is it?

Some Great Rifles on This Thread. Here is my contribution: It started life as a Model 7 .243 LSS (For once I didn't shoot the donor rifle). Then I sent it to Mickey Coleman for a #4 Douglas chambered in 6BR and all that other Alabama Magic Rifle Voodoo he do. Its topped with a 2-10x38 Weaver. Eight and quarter pounds of one hole group shooting goodness. What is the barrel length on your rifle?

Awesome pictures I wish Remington would offer a model 7 XCR II that would be a sweet gun I would like one in 350 Rem mag or 308 Win.

Remington needs to bring something new into the model 7 line. Bring back the XCR or atleast a Synthetic / stainless SPS model.
There must not have been enough interest in the model 7 lineup for Remington to discontinue the stainless, and focus on the 700 series.

There must not have been enough interest in the model 7 lineup for Remington to discontinue the stainless, and focus on the 700 series. I agree with your first desire. However, I would never agree that Remington actually made their lineup choices with an eye to what would produce an ongoing interest in their lineup.

I posted this picture in another Model 7 thread, but thought I'd put it in this one too. It is a 338 federal with an H S Precision stock and a Hart barrel. I have just gotten another in 338 Federal that I will be making a 260 out of shortly. Love these little buggers.

Here's a couple pics of my daughter's 223. Matte finish 20" barrel, hollowed out wood youth stock underneath the paint job. She let me know this week that she doesn't plan on giving it back!

Of my three the youngest just turned 1....so this one should have several more years of use ahead of it here... This one will probably get another paint job in a few years for my daughter...likely it will be in the same general theme as the one you posted. Great job!
