You have to love them.
I'VE HUNTED MOOSE WITH ONE OF THESE FOR YEARS 700 REM, 300WHBY MAG. Bought mine from Lovett's before they went out of business. I use a handload with 200gr partitions at a touch over 2900fps, it doesn't get any better.This was 2010, range report.

That is one scary looking rifle. Don't let the antis see it - Remington 700 might become banned.
Lovett's...I had forgotten about them! I used to look forward to their big, center ad in the ACCESS every month. Course that was 20 years ago.
The store was even better than the ad. Crammed full of cool stuff.Lovett's...I had forgotten about them! I used to look forward to their big, center ad in the ACCESS every month. Course that was 20 years ago.

Now that is a good question! I'll bet the barrel stays but a reamer has a close encounter.
The 280AI reamer is on ice......I can't stand to look at the lathe in the garage after 10 hours in a real machine shop....
..I haven't barreled a rifle in quite a few months and I'm not even sure I'll do it again....no real reason to when one can buy nice lightweights and whatever one wants these days....I've a half dozen good "donors" here and they all still have thier barrels in them.....nothing a 280AI can do that a 7mm Rem Mag can't do better, and I have couple very good shooting 700's in 7 Mag....well,..just remembered,..I have to do at least one more barrel...I have a lefty short 700 and a 7mm tube ordered for my oldest son's lightweight....I'll have to twist that one up when the barrel arrives.....7mm-08 of course..

The obvious thing to do is retire, again...

again?...I must have missed that..
that's like saying.."I'm working on my second million,....'cuz I never made the first one"...
