Default New 350 Mag

Just scoped this one up tonight. I think it's been 3 years since I chambered and installed the barrel.
Had the stock done a few weeks ago.
A lefty 700 in 350 Rem Mag. Benchmark 12" twist stainless tube @ 20" and a Wildcat stock.
With the 2-7 Freedom in Talley LW's it comes in at 7lbs 3 ounces.
Did it up for my left handed son, I think he'll like it but he had better hang on..LOL
Have 225 and 250 Woodleighs loaded, range day soon. Elk hunting next week.

That's a beauty, bolt is on the proper side too.

I had a 600 Rem in 350 mag for many years, but didn't like the right hand bolt.
I never thought recoil was a problem...

Very nice build. I have model 673 and model 7. I don't find the recoil that bad. My buddy has a 600, nice compact rifle.

I have a Seven CDL in 350 that weighs 7-11 and it's recoil is not that bad.

He wanted something lighter than his 35 Whelen that I put together almost 10 years ago that weighs 8-3/4 lbs.

Really nice, and the bolt is located on the correct side of the rifle.

Try the 200gr TTSX and TAC. Its a stone cold penetrating machine and a great setup in the 350....

Nice rifle. Gotta love the 358's. Love my longer action version.

Cool Cartridge. Certainly intriguing and not common which makes it even cooler to own. Nice rifle too - I really like the fact that short action, shorter barrel make this a great set up for Moose or Elk.
