[QUOTE="pacowboy, post: 1332464, member: 8669"] I agree there are better out there. But mind you as I stated, my gun was built back around 78-79 and it's still a tack driver. No need for me to replace something that isn't broken, especially something that I have a fondness for. My dad is hunting on the streets of gold now, so sentimental value holds a lot too. I am sure with todays powders and bullets, the reliable 7-300 could easily break that "old" record today. I did some shooting for a few years at Williamsport myself but didn't use this gun. I built a light benchrest gun (under 17lb) in 6.5x284 for that. Ironically I was given one of my great-uncles guns that had a 24" douglas barrel chambered in 6.5-300 WBY on it. I converted that to the benchrest gun. Now the 6.5-300Wby is a current trend or rage. [/QUOTE]
