[QUOTE="Paladin300, post: 2308378, member: 115299"] I like the thought of the 280 AI. I think that is an excellent choice for a western and mountain hunts rifle. The Kimber is not a bad rifle either. Feels nice in the hands. My personal rifle for that purpose is a Sako in 270 win with a Leupold 3.5-10 on it, no bi- pod. I carry a set of shooting sticks or shoot off my pack. The Sako 85 carbonlite is an excellent rifle straight from the factory. In the newest Leupold scopes, which is an excellent choice, I would go with the VX 5 line. When it comes to a dream rifle it would all be about accuracy, weight for me would not be a real consideration. I already have a couple that I have built on Rem 700 actions and have owned numerous others through the years, including one Niseka and a Dakota. If I were to build another one I would start with the gun smith. MEREDITH RIFLES by Tooder Meredith Action: Terminus Zeus LA switch barrel Barrel: Bartlein or Krieger 27” M24 profile straight fluted Trigger: Timney Calvin Elite Caliber: 6.5x284 Norma or 6.5x55 AI or 7mmSAUM Brake: APA LB Gen 2 Cerakote: Gun metal metallic Stock: McMillian A6 (pillar and glass bedded) or Manners MCS T6A or ???
