[QUOTE="Elkbelter, post: 2212120, member: 89295"] I go elk huntin every other year, most for the looong shot. My main rifle is what I had newly built the past 24 months-- Basically Long range elk cartridges with a Nightforce NXS--whether a Manners/Gunwerks/Mcmillan stock proof Research barrel...etc. What ever I did not like or hindered me in previous hunt I evolve into the new "Next" elk rifle. Usually I run full circle and come back to one I sold 10 years ago! But my Second elk rifle has been the same for years with High confidence---Colt Light Rifle with Douglas#4 24" fluted/breaked Douglas barrel. 6.5x284 8Twist-- MPI mountain stock (SLimmer than a Rifles Inc). Weighs 5.7 lbs and the best balanced & feeling rifle I have ever had. 140 Berger VLD at a mild 2800fps. 1.5#trigger. Scope as of late Swarovski Z5 3.5-18x44 Ballistic Turret. My opinion--Superb optics--17 oz. repeatable klik-klaks and sleek. [/QUOTE]
