My doner gun is an older model 700 Remington Classic in 35 whelen made back when Remington cared. I would like to have a lighter weight hunting rifle that shoots 6.5 or 7mm 140 grn pills 3000+ FPS but not burn the the barrel out after 700-800 rounds. I might add I already have:
1) remy custom 6.5 CM 22 in bartlein barrel varmint contour
2)Stiller TAC30 in 260 24 in bartlein barrel not sure which contour but its a little thicker than the varmint. This one has a heavy Manners stock
3) Mod 700 5r Mil spec in 308
All the above are pretty heavy just wanting something lighter to hunt with and occasionally punch paper.
Thx guys
