I have recently been thinking of a light weight long range big game hunting rifle. Fired my imagination to build such a rifle. I think the cartridge would be .300 Win Mag as this can drive the 190-200 gr bullets (with BC of around 0.5) at around 3,000 fps. Rifle will be on a Remington 700 or Winchester M70 action, barrel 26" probably No.3 countor fluted (to keep the weight down), with a HS Precision or McMillan synthetic stock.
Scope will be a Leupold Mark 4 LR/T scope in either 4-14X or 6.5-20X. In light weight tactical type mounts and rings.
I want to try to keep the weight down as much as possible, around 8.5 lbs.
Any comments.
