Good luck
I like this set up. Stainless for your kind of weather up there, which means a little less maintenance. Great action. Nice glass. I don't know how much you like recoil. But some 7's have less then others. I like dual dove tail bases. I really do not like windage screws. Some others can probably help with that set up. I drop my gun when I slip and fall, my gun is still on. I don't have to worry about knocking it off. There should be a pawn shop that may have something you can shoulder. Otherwise , I guess take the chance on ordering the one you want. Practice and go shoot you an elk!!! Good luck!! Really think about stainless for your neck of the woods!!!
