[QUOTE="migolito, post: 769122, member: 64638"] What you gonna hunt? Spot and stalk? Stand? Still hunt? Eastern flats? Western mountains? Etc. I hunt for deer and elk in the west. So, the lighter the better. However, that needs to be positioned against caliber/recoil. So, a Rem model 7 in 7mm-08 with a 24" thin barrel, is pretty good when I'm backpacking. When I'm not backpacking my gun will be (its being built) a Howa 1500 with a 24" lite barrel, Medalist stock, in 280AI. There are plenty of really good perfectly stock rifles out there, but, they need to match your conditions/needs. I also hunt with a Savage 99 in 300 savage that is the greatest hunting rifle I've ever been around...and so might your rem 7400 be. [/QUOTE]
