[QUOTE="AJ Peacock, post: 567873, member: 4885"] I have 2 rifles that "I" consider scout guns (even though they are both longer than what is typically considered a true Scout). 1) .243 Win 20" barrel and Youth length stock. It is awful handy and I use it for whitetail when it's real cold out (since I wear more clothes, the shorter stock fits perfectly for quick work). 2) 7mm Rem Mag 24" barrel with super lightweight Brown Precision stock. It weighs 8lbs with sling, bipod, scope and ammo. I've shot 1/2 moa [B]and less[/B] out to 800yds with it. Not bad for an 8lb rifle. I've thought about putting the .243 Win in a Choate folding stock, so it'd be easier to toss into a backpack. When I need something smaller than these rifles, I grab my 7mm-08 TC encore pistol with 14" barrel and bi-pod. AJ [/QUOTE]
