[QUOTE="kameron, post: 2683314, member: 124109"] And I am looking for a rifle that will be maybe 7-8 pounds without a scope so it doesn’t need to be feather light but I don’t want a 12lb bench gun. I am a 26year old diesel mechanic and 6’3” and 240lb so I’m not scared of the recoil by any means, but I know the recoil can throw you off a bit if you don’t practice a lot with it but I’m hoping to run it suppressed to cut down on it a little. With my 308 I was shooting 6-8” groups at 800yards so I’m thinking 8-900 yards would be my max shooting range. I do a lot of deer hunting up here in northern Minnesota but I think the longest I’ve shot deer at is roughly 400yards as there aren’t a lot of long shots around here when hunting [/QUOTE]
