Thread: The mans gun - 7mm08

Ive had this for ages now, posted up some pics over on fishnwang, but spose I should put it up here to increase my post count.

Abe did some work on it for me, recrown, bed and paint. He also filled the stock up to the days with devcon ceramic filler, so its almost as stiff as a very stiff thing and its been sanded out so the foreend will never touch.

I put a farrel 20moa base on it, with a new scope just in from the states, took 6 months to get here, but its pretty sweet. Got some of the new Jon Aadland triple lug rings. These suckers are way overkill. Didn't lap them for fear of baldbobs wrath. Highly recommended for big guns (aka something kiwi greg would cream over)

Just your average rem spss 7mm08, got it because the .223 just didnt quite cut it. It was MOA to 400m, but then past there you couldnt spot the hits. This will run 162 amax's at maybe 2700, for very similar performance to my winmag that has now passed on. If it shoots MOA i'll be happy.

Thanks again to abe for the painting and smith work, even though im sure the green is laquer



Guess the scope



And the pills I am to use. 162 amax for LR practice, and 150 barnes TTSX for tahr and deer rut.
