So that may be somethign to consider.Īlso it looks like the laminate model has a shorter barrel.in that case I'd def choose the 7mm-08. Of those 2 rifles, I've never liked how laminates looked, though they are more hardy compared to wood stocks, ie with swelling and shringing.but not as good as a synthetic. ![]() 260 as well, something to consider, esp if you're new and don't handload.though I bet both will be around for years to come, but you never know. 260 and 7mm-08 I'd pick the 7mm-08 hands down I think, and quite sure its more popular than the. Thanks.īoth are nice, surprisingly, half the time anyone mentions a remington on here I think its usually for one of their "ugliest models offered" prizes.īetween the. I'm planning to spend some serious coin on this rifle, so I want to make sure I'm at peace with the purchase. I know I have to make up my own mind, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask for some words of wisdom from men with experience. I'll just buy it online until I learn how to handload. I enjoy tying my own flies and I think it would also be cool to handload my own ammunition, so I'm not worried about the availability of 260 Remington ammo.

It has a laminate stock and I like what I've read about how they hold up very well in the rain. The MTN LSS is a little shorter and lighter, which would be nice. I also really like the way both of these rifles look. Based on what I've read online it sounds like both of these rifles shoot very good and both of the calibers work well for whitetail deer. The two rifles I'm considering are the Remington 700 CDL SF Limited Edition chambered for 260 Remington and the Remington 700 Mountain LSS chambered for 7mm-08. Every day I switch back and forth between the two, so I'm hoping to get some opinions to help make a final decision. I've been researching calibers and looking at rifles for the last few weeks and I think I've narrowed it down to two. I've lined up some whitetail hunts for this fall in Missouri and Tennessee and I want to buy my first rifle so I can practice this summer. I went hunting for the first time earlier this year and was instantly hooked. ![]()
