The decisions been made...

Well lots of thought about what to do concerning rebarreling etc...over quite a bit of time. Well last nite the answer came.

I am a Sako-a-holic and have wanted a 75 Hunter in 7m-08 for probably 5 years. Seems I never could find one around the home area, but I found one last nite NIB. It should be heading my way on monday. I am one happy guy. :grin:

Congrats !! Interested in seeing the range results too...... The 7-08 is an excellent round !

You will love it.


My 7mm-08 is a cheapo Stevens / savage but super accurate. I used the 120 ballistic tip and rl15 for 3100 fps.

I head shot (eye shot) an antelope buck at 304 yards this year. Lightweight, accurate and affordable!here he is....notice the left eye!

Forgot to mention I recovered a 120 BT at 70.8% retained weight...... after traversing the whole body.



no kidding!!!!!!

I think that also says something about the shooter Pop. Old Dead Eye.
