FIREARM COMES WITH A SLING ALREADY ATTACHED.
FIREARM IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.

In the 1900s, developments made in the industry were fast. Rifles became more accurate, and with the improvements in optics, this improved accuracy was used more extensively. The increased accuracy also meant an increase in firing distances. Also, questions on the adequacy of the performance of existing calibers became topical.

The increase in firing distances created the need for cartridges to bring bullet output velocities to a level higher than conventional cartridges. This time is known in the firearms press as magnum mania, as many manufacturers launched a lot of magnum cartridges in a very short time. The most popular of these are still popular today.

The biggest competition in the market was between the two largest firearms manufacturers in the United States at the time. Remington and Winchester both developed a whole series of new calibers, typical of which was that Remington used millimeter measurements in the designations of their cartridges, and Winchester refrained from imperial units of measurement.

The 7mm Rem. Mag. gained popularity especially in elk hunting (wapiti), where the caliber qualities were successfully demonstrated. A good velocity in open terrain for longer distances and good penetration of heavy 7 mm (.284") bullets were the combination that attracted the hunters of this large, prestigious and very tenacious game. The popularity was also substantially influenced by the coverage received by the caliber in the press. The caliber gained the support of several supporters who embraced the caliber and filled the pages of firearms and hunting magazines, with amazing stories about this new caliber.
