RE: Remington 7 and 700?
The actions are pretty much identical except for the trigger system where there are very minor differances. The Model 7 basically has a compact stock and shorter feather weight barrel on it.
It's just a compact version of the 700 and came later than the 700 which is why the 700 is more popular. There are not as many people that want a compact, light weight rifle as there are that want a 'standard' size rifle.

I think the 700 beens offered in a ton more calibers then the 7 ever has also. Theres only a few versions of the Model 7 like youth, laminated and synthetic stainless or a regular walnut. The 700 been offered in every combo under the sun except for pink and purple pooka dotted(the next years classic).
