[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 2500397, member: 87243"] For timber elk, farthest shot I have ever taken for that kind of hunting is around 300 yards.....honestly I was thinking either a .260 ai or a 7mm-08 (have dies for both) using most likely 100-130 grain hammer bullets, and it would be an ultralight light contour 16-18" steel barrel, with a Manners ultralight stock with a shortened LOP, and light, sub 1 lb for scope and rings Leupold 3.5-10 scope. It would be meant as a rifle that is fast handling in the timber, probably wouldn't shoot itty-bitty groups, but 1" or less would be plenty acceptable for a sub 300 yards. My build sheet with weights of the different items comes out to about 5.4 lbs all up without ammo. Sorry, off topic........ [/QUOTE]
