new rem mountain rifle

[ben walker]

just ordered one of the new rem 700 mtn SS 30-06 from Epps. I have a matte leup vxll 3-9x40LR and talley lite rings waiting here for it.
Plan is to find a 165gr load that it likes and use it as my all round rifle. cant wait to get this in my hands. Has anyone seen one close up? opinions?

Haven't handled one of the new ones but have handled both short and long action mountain rifles in the original Ti stocks. I like them (the stocks) as they fit me quite well. Nice rig you have put together. Personally I'd start with H4350 and 165 hornadys, I haven't had an 06 that didn't shoot that combo quite/very well.
