Welp, don't get sucked up into all of the hype unless you are going to do some serious hunting like the "pros" do on those hunting shows. If you only hunt one week a year like I do then Remington SPS, Tikka T3 Lite, or a cheap but amazingly accurate Savage will do.

I own a Ruger M77 7mag and it sure is a nice looking rifle and well built but it needs some work done to it to make it as accurate as it should be for a 7 Mag. If I could do it all over again (and hope you ain't saying the same thing a few years down the road) then I would've gotten the Tikka T3 Lite.

Good luck
