The pieces are coming together

I sold my 7mm mashburn last year and this fall I started missing it so I decided to build another one. The Remington 700 7mm Remington will be in next week and I will shoot a box of factory through it before I ream it to a mashburn. If it shoots I'll ream it to mashburn and if it doesn't I'll make a call to lilja and get a #2 contour ordered. As of right now I have the mcmillan mountain rifle stock edge fill, my dies, and my reamer. Should have the mashburn up and running in the next couple weeks.

Should be a good one. Glass??

Probably a Leupold 3.5-10 or 4.5-14. Ran a 6x42 Leupold with m1 turret on my last one and I think I will go for a little more magnification on this one

That'd work. Surprised you aren't into Super Chickens...

I've played with one but I like a lighter weight scope on a hunting rig. Those chickens are beefy

HA! I understand completely. Funny how two different sites will get you different recommendations.
