    google is wrong. I don't have a 700 to measure (because they're bad) but it's much the same. Model 7 number is for a youth model I'd guess, the adult ones are normal sized - mid 13 inch.

    It isn't a fair comparison because you can't know this - all you know is you are better with your rifle than they are with theirs on that day. By your own admission that is less a measure of the rifle than it is the shooter. The shoots you are talking about 1MOA accuracy is about all you need as long as your wind call is up to the task. An off the shelf sako is guaranteed to go MOA or less...

    ...

    You know what? I wrote big reply rebutting a bunch of things you said and then deleted it because it simply doesn't matter to me if you think your Remington is more accurate for the money than my Sako... i like my Sako, i am comfortable with it and with what i paid for it, i shoot it ok and it does what i want it to - as i said above, once you get there you stop caring what others think. I do think you are basing your argument on some fuzzy logic but hey, sweetas.

    BTW the sako stocks vary in length a bit by as much as about an inch. Of course i can only speak for their wood stocks i haven't measured their synthetic ones.

    Think the old remmy 700 is a good design, just a pity it is now being put together by a company that prioritises cost over quality. You will still get good ones, but QC is expensive and hence buying a remmy 700 has become somwhat of a lottery. Just buy a tikka or a savage for the same dosh that has a much higher chance of being a proper shooter and nowa days the aftermarket support is getting pretty damn good. Expecially as the yanks have latched onto the T3's

    I adjusted it a little further the wrong way. Don't want to risk damaging my dots.
