[QUOTE="Lycan, post: 690060, member: 40491"] I'd have a call in to Remington.........then maybe Tubb Final Finish if Big Green doesn't do right by you. I've had a couple 7STW's. The last was built on a brand new 7mm mag Winchester model 70 Classic. I bedded it on a Richards Microfit stock I finished myself and it loved the 140gr Nosler CT bullets at 3400fps. [IMG]http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr20/lycanthrope9/finsh003.jpg[/IMG] When the barrel was shot out around 1700 rounds, I went full custom to my liking. Same action with an Obermeyer 5R barrel in Remington Varmint contour (1:8.75). Macmillan A5 stock (70% black 30% med gray) with KMW Loggerhead hardware. Bedded and floated by yours truly. Jewell trigger. Speedlock firing pin. Aadmount rings (good grief these are awesome) on a Nightforce 20moa rail. Sightron SIII 8x32 with MOA reticle. [IMG]http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr20/lycanthrope9/7STW.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr20/lycanthrope9/SIII.jpg[/IMG] Only about 20 rounds down the tube so far. Been cleaning after every shot (all debates aside, I'm a fan of "break-in" for 50 rounds) and every round prints in the same place at .75 moa (168gr Berger VLD, 162gr A max, 162gr SST). Once I start shooting on a fouled bore and work some powder charges, I expect things to tighten up. If not, I'll be ordering a Wyatt magazine box since I'm limited to 3.630 COAL. Glad to be part of the brotherhood. [/QUOTE]
