[QUOTE="woods, post: 629651, member: 6042"] Not an expert opinion here but some experience in rebarelling actions from 6.5's to 338RUM and even a 375 Ruger with barrels from Hart, Douglas, Brux, Shilen and PacNor. If I were going to try to narrow it down to one gun for hunting speed goats to Moose or if all my guns disappeared and I didn't want to go through the long process of multiple calibers, then this is what I would do 300 win mag with no muzzle brake, don't like 'em and don't need 'em. Like to be able to shoot without looking for my ear muffs and like hearing music. My 338RUM and 375 Ruger are over your weight limit but even they do not have muzzle brakes. 200 gr Accubond at 2900 fps will get it done close or out as far as you need to shoot at game, hell even a 180 gr TTSX at 3100 fps will do whatever you need done with good shot placement 24" #4 contour 3 groove PacNor barrel Zeiss Conquest 4.5x14x44 RapidZ 800 scope Should be around 8# and if you need to save weight get a McMillan Edge stock [/QUOTE]
