[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1075057, member: 30902"] If you want a repeater shooting high BC bullets like the Berger's and Accubond Long Range from Nosler you'll pretty well have to go to a long action. With the Creedmore, .260 Rem, or 6.5x47L you'll be a whole lot better off. As for the rest, I'd go with a 3.5 or 4 contour barrel and a lighter stock. More weight on the barrel end will reduce barrel rise on the shot and make it easier to get back on target to spot hits and/or make follow up shots. Take your weight savings in the stock and optic by going with something like the McMillan Hunter's Edge or one of their other stocks with the "Edge Technology" using more carbon fiber and less fiberglass and composite and look at such scopes as the VX-7 Leupold vs Nightforce Tactical line or look at the NF SHV line.
