Re*****on Arm's recently came out with their 200 anniversary rifle in the tried and true Model 70 bolt action frame. It's chambered in 7 mm Rem. Mag only but it's a real looker with C grade wood, Monte Carlo comb, Fleur de lis carving and checkering, lots of engraving on the receiver and floor plate, several gold inlays, jewelled bolt, icicle break trigger, and enough weight to help tame the recoil from that belted cartridge. I've read in several of my reloading manuals that a lot of the outdoor writers claim, with all things considered with large North American game the 7 mm Rem Mag was the best cartridge going. Maybe that's why Re*****on chose it in this model rifle. Whatever the reason they are a little hard to find and in the $1800-$1900 range a little pricey but, it's a beautiful example of American gun maker's art !
