[QUOTE="375fan, post: 751573, member: 24835"] Of these 2 choices, I'd go with the RUM. Going to need a brake or good recoil pad. As Wildrose said if your going to go with light rifle then back off to a 300wm. My .338rum that I had built weighs 12 pounds scoped and braked, it is a pleasure to shoot but a bit heavy when packing all day or climbing in steep country. My goat chasing/lite rifle is a 300wm, 9lbs scoped(NF 2.5X10 set in Mark 4 rings and bases) loaded and braked. This is still a little heavy but is sweet to shoot and can still reach out to 800 confidently. [/QUOTE]
