I'm a fan of nearly all things LaRue so a T1 in their mount is GTG as far as I'm concerned.
I typically run EoTechs on my AR's, but did like the ML2 I had some years ago. Lately I've been considering adding an UltiMAK and T1 to my SLR.

BTW Ish, while I'm not a "sporting rifle" fan the Model Seven I had (in 308) was my favorite. Your mum's Seven in 243 would be even better IMHO.

My first hunting rifle was a Model 7 in .223 that my father bought for me when I was 9....I will never change it out of original form, but man those Model 7's are itty-bitty small. BTW...Loving the T-1. I ended up going with the new VFZ, as I do not regularly switch out my optics. It is a fantabulous design. I've already put the M4s up for sale <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

The diminutive size is what I liked so much about the Seven. I could walk all day with it in hand, and not get fatigued. I actually miss the little guy (even though I have no use for it now). My 308 Seven CDL had factory installed irons - which I very much like on all of my rifles. I don't see many Seven's around, and very few of them had walnut stocks AND sights (the only iron sighted units I've seen have had synthetic furniture). I'm starting to pine a little.
I don't have any first hand experience with the Force Zero mounts, but quite a bit with the LT mounts and sights. Thanks for the T1 VFZ feedback. I've been thinking about putting a small / lightweight RDS for my wife's Colt...and as I mentioned early my SLR.

Got an early b-day present from the spouse- a Fiddleback Ladyfinger. It's a monster with wood! What a grind! Just used it with food prep with the WD and the WD smoked it! Great knife though. Going to put it up against my HR, S5 and WD soon... ![[Linked Image from i432.photobucket.com]](http://i432.photobucket.com/albums/qq47/richneal68/IMG_0824.jpg)

4" blade...thick, tough blade. Best fuzz sticks I've ever done- effortless with wood. Handle isn't loving my hand, but it's early.
