[QUOTE="Timnterra, post: 818939, member: 55944"] I'm contemplating building a rifle for high altitude mountain backpack hunts for sheep goats and possibly elk. I've already got a remington 700 long action and an HS precision stock I just need to decide on the caliber. I'm leaning towards a 6.5-284 in a 26" #4 profile for lighter weight. I am also considering a .280 AI. My question in essence is: if you could build the ultimate mountain rifle for deer and sheep size game what would it be? The only cartridge restriction is it must have a standard .473 bolt face [/QUOTE]
