I have a bolt with the dual as well, not too excited about it either but it is still a good deal.

Don’t install both ejectors? Install one, and glue or pin a pice of drill rod in the other hole.
I assume installing the bottom one would probably work.
I really don’t know why leaving the hole empty would hurt anything.

Picked mine up today
7mm-08 Stainless M700. Heavy barrel. It's a Sako extractor so not sure if that's a factory or PTG bolt?
Not sure how I feel about it. Pretty dang heavy. I ordered the Model 7 but they sent me a 700. I was hoping to keep it short and light and give the rifle to my momma.

That might be it. I haven't tried to clean it up yet

I could be losing it, but that looks like a sporter barrel.
I don’t know if it will be harder, or more difficult to find a stock, bolt release, and trigger for a Model 7, or Model 700 right now. I’d keep that in mind when deciding whether to ship it back or not.

Hmm. You guys might be right! 4# 2oz for a 24" barreled action sound right? I own a 700 mtn rifle in 3006 so maybe that barrel threw me off?

The mountain probably has a thinner profile than a standard sporter. I’m not certain, someone else would know for sure. I think the mountain rifles are also under 24”.
I can tell you what that a 26” Varmint/Sendero in a 2lb stock with a light scope and rings comes in around 9-10lbs(depending on scope/ring/base combo) You’re well under that. That’s not a Varmint/Sendero contour, and it’s not a magnum sporter either. That looks like a standard sporter contour.
Two piece aluminum bases/aluminum rings/blind magazine(ADL style)/ plastic butt plate(not recoil pad) you can build that under 8lbs. Maybe closer to 7lbs depending on your scope choice.
I have never tried to build a really light rifle. Someone else would know better.

Has anyone gotten a Model 7 yet?

Nope, from what Dave told Stan last week when I talked with him, they should be there by the end of this week.

Good, I hope to have one put together and a load developed for my 12 yo by deer season. I have about 6 weeks.

Still waiting, they stopped returning my messages. Almost forgot about it.

I hope that’s accurate! Based on my experience, even speaking with Stan, I’m not going to count on it!

From Stan today: "I am waiting on their arrival from Remington any day now, then I can go from there, but according to Remington, they are in route here"

There is a very good post on LRH derived from a conversation with the fromer Manager at the Custom Shop.

The guy that posted it has been shilling for PT&G harder than Muley does for Hammer bullets.
He also said “Some have stocks. I talked to Stan at PT&G and they all have bolts”.
