[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1515319, member: 90080"] If light weight and SA is what you're looking for, the Creed or 7mm08 would fill the bill. I have two 6.5-284s and they are well above either of the first two, but significantly more recoil with 140s @ 2,950+.....more than your wife would like without a brake. Plus it really needs a long action, to shine. I just bought a SA and I'm also back & forth on 6.5 Creed and the 7-08 for the build. So, I'd advise you to get one you have tools & powder for. Wife would probably like whatever you surprise her with. [/QUOTE]
