Default traded my 710

2 years ago i bought a 710 in 270. I've been happy with the gun as far as its accuracy but have become weary of its durability mostly from what i've read here. nothing had gone wrong with it up until now. Went back to the place I bought it (pawn shop) and traded it in for a 700 ADL in 7mm mag. Maple stock in excellent condition. I gave the 710 + $75. I had originally bought the 710 from them new for $350.
I wasn't looking to change the 270 in for a 7mag but I really liked the gun.
Took the 700 to the range and it shoots great. the 7mm hits me a bit harder but not enough to say it's bothersome

Thanks, I'm looking forward to getting a little more range time in and then be ready for deer season. I have never used a 7mag before but i really do like how the gun feels
