[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 505101, member: 21068"] Hello from a fellow dog hunter. You might look into a Remington 700 BDL................easily meets the weight requirements, can be had in 25-06 with a 24" barrel. IMO, this is about the lightest barrel we can get that is still capable of long range minute of coyote. I am not sure of the exact contour, but every barrel maker has their own designations on contours. Only problem with the rifle that I see (for your purposes) is the pretty shiny gloss finish, but that can be taken care of with some paint. If you wanted to build one, I'd build it on the basic design of the BDL, keeping the weight and balance about the same. [/QUOTE]
