Myself as well ,
I'm currently playing around with a 6.5 x 284 Norma , I bought it well worth the money, #3 Douglas barrell, greyboe stock, 4 by 20 Steiner, so far it's close to shooting with the 7mags , it will probably be my long range rifle , I have 2 ladder test loaded just have been...
Didn't want to hijack the other 7mag thread,
I have 2 Remington 700 BDL
One is a 1980 bone stock nothing ever done to it . 1st pic ~ .366 group 3 shot , top bullet was 1 shot from my trusty Tikka 708
The other is one when the upgraded the plant ~2005, 700 SPS , it has Tubb speedlock in it...

I crawled around on my hands and knees for 2 days to kill those boars , ended up killing 4 huge old boars with 7mm-08 with 140 Accubonds on top of Varget , no shots were...
I'm not sure what it will end up shooting, but 130 berger factory loads shot ~3\4 inch group 1st 3 shots on new barrel,
So I ordered a die , Lapua brass, and I'll see what happens.
A friend has on in 223 that shoot ~1\2 group @100 yards
For cheap rifle,,,
That ain't bad

I bow hunt 99% of the time.
I shoot swacker in a xbow , they rarely run 50 yards with a double lung shot ,,,,BUT a 2 1/4 hole in both rib cages lets a lot of air out.
The absolute worse big game rifle and bullet combo I ever saw was a 7mag with core locks I think 160 or 170 , watched a guy...
Yes exactly,
Accubond didn't make a nearly large of exit wound as did the Ballistic tip did , I watched the Accubond deer run for 150 yards , didn't even think i hit it ,
Really thought that when i shot 2nd deer and it didn't go anywhere.

Have several great shooting rifles,
This just a toy , rifle is a little heavy, but not horrible.
I believe the scope alone is ~1200 bucks
