[QUOTE="Brambles, post: 586229, member: 11508"] Mule deer and elk out to 1000, I know its probably more gun than needed but, the country around here is thick, I need the most hurt in one shot I can, cause you might not get another shot if they get into the thick stuff. Now weight is a tough one to nail down, I had a 300 RUM sendero SF that was 8.5lbs naked with the factory HS precision stock. It was a touch muzzle heavy but was certainly packable. The fact that I have a Hi-Tech stock here to use is the limiting factor on the barrel diameter but if its really gonna come down to accuracy I'll invest in another stock if I have to. But I don't want a 15lb gun. I'm thinking of 10lbs with a scope as the Max. But I'm flexible if a small increase in weight is gonna make a significant improvement on accuracy and consistancy.
