[QUOTE="Master Carper, post: 3231464, member: 15527"] Yes, that is a Remington 700. This gun was built for a customer in Ohio, and since he requested a muzzle brake, I made and installed one. I shot the gun 3 times before packaging it up and shipping it off. I test fire everything I build to make sure headspace and chamber dimensions are correct. This gun will go to Africa for plains game sometime this year, and this Fall it will be used for elk and mule deer. I use to shoot a 7mm STW years ago, and shot Sierra's 160 Boat Tail Spitzer under a stiff charge of IMR-7828. The first year Remington started producing their Sendero model 7mm Remington Magnum with a 26" barrel, I took in 500 guns in 12 months to rechamber to the 7mm STW. I also added muzzle brakes to some of those guns, as well as did trigger jobs as well as glass bedded the actions. The second year, I took in 300 and did the same rechambering and work on them. Back then, the 7mm STW was one of the most popular cartridges to come along in a long time. And as far as custom rifles in 7mm STW go, I have built well over 300 full custom rifles in that chambering. The gun pictured at the beginning of this thread, is the first 7mm STW built within the last 10 years! Now days though, most everything is in 6.5 caliber this or that, factory or wildcat. [/QUOTE]
