I have hunted with many rifles but my old standby is a Ruger M77mkII that I bought myself when I was 17. It was originally in 7mm rem mag and I shot it until it would not shoot anymore. The barrell was replaced with a douglas also in 7mm rem mag and it too was shot until the hawkeye showed smooth bore for the first 3 inches of the barrell. Now it has a new Pac Nor barrell chambered in 7mm Dakota. It has a JRS precision stock floated and bedded, a 3lb rifle basics trigger and a Leupold VXIII 2.5-7 scope. My favorite load is 160gr Nosler ABs on top of 72grs of IMR7828. The load shoots 1/2in-3/4 depending on the day and the operator. At 3100fps the accubond has killed everything its ever hit. -Shooter
