wklman Report post Posted February 19, 2006 actually, I was looking for an ultra lightweight in 25-06.but i saw this guy at the gun show carrying this one around and had to have it.its a 280 remington which is basically a 7mm-06.I figured for the price i got it for i would sacrifice caliber choice.it has a leupold vari-x III 2.5x8 power scope on it which I may swap for something a bit bigger later on. thx Wade Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
More D Report post Posted February 20, 2006 Very nice! The .280 is not bad at all and besides you have a great selection of bullets to choose from. Lark will give you some lip but it will be worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Rabbit Report post Posted February 20, 2006 Good chambering. My first rifle was in Remington 7mm Express, aka .280 Remington. Be sure to feed your new girl a steady diet and take her on plenty of walks. You might like her 2.5-8x eyes for elk hunting in the timber. RR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
