The customer and I thought this gun would be nice as a hunting gun in Kentucky the whole gun optic and all is only 6.5 lbs.

With the sling set up this way you can really get your work done when it comes time to clime or go hands on.

What do you guys think of the gun as a hunting gun based around 200lb animals with thin skin.
The gun is in 7mm-08 and one fine little rifle.

That is just cuter than a bug's ear. If I built a hunting rifle it would look something like that.

I looked around again and it looks like Badger Ord does a short action bottom metal se for .223 guns. I'll see if it will work with the Micro 7.

Neither Badger or Hooper make bottom metal that works with the Remington Model 7 action... They do have bottom metal for short action Model 700s though.
