Thanks. I went with the vz24 because I had read that was the action used for Jack O Connor's pet 7mm mauser. Someday I want to learn to checker so I can pretty this gun up a bit more. It just doesn't look like it's quite finished to me yet.

This rifle hates the 140gr Remington factory load. The only hand loads I've tried so far contained the 110 gr Speer tnt and they shot beautifully with 44.0 grains of Varget. My next load to try is the 120 gr Barnes ttsx over IMR-4320.
