I just can't brag enough on this Rem.model 7, 7-08. I've got 26 inch barreld rifles that can't hold a light to this little 20 inch tack driver.I first zeroed the scope in at 85yrd.and cut 3 bullet holes on a quarter size target and was tickled pink. Then today i was wondering if i could do better. Today i moved 1 click right and up,cut 2 bullet holes on a dime and did this twice on 2 diff. targets.Next i'm going for pea sized targets but just couldn't hold it steady after those to dime shots so i never pulled the trigger. Didn't want to ruin my record! Hat's off to Remington.

I think there's something magical about short barrels (read stiff). I have an LTR that will cut holes more often than me.

Way to go! What bullet and manufacturer were you shooting?
Remington 700 Mountain DM 7mm-08, Bushnell 3200 4x12. I love the combo.
