[QUOTE="kennygss, post: 665635, member: 41156"] I think you need to define "long range" in your hunting scenarios. That will determine allot. You may want a wider forend for shooting prone of the back pack, you may need ( or not) a 20 MOA mount for your optic. Also, pure hunting rifles for many of us are akin to a hammer. They are a tool. The hogue stock is comfortable, a delivers acceptable "minute of Deer" accuracy in most setups, but it is not a precision instrument. It just works. Also, your caliber is a stout one. Someone once told me to not look for weight savings in the stock or receiver and bottom metal. You will have to straddle a line between light weight ( portability) and shooting comfort. Consider a brake perhaps, and a well designed stock like the McMillan hunters edge or Manners SL. [/QUOTE]
