[QUOTE="GetReel, post: 2028197, member: 92890"] I just got back from a 7 day mule deer hunt in the ND Badlands. I carried my Christensen ELR 300 WM with suppressor the whole time. Not the lightest setup with a Vortex Viper Gen2 5-25x50. Anyway, I want to build something lighter and more compact. I think I want a 6.5x284 with a 20” proof barrel. I plan to shoot 120-130 gr Bullets as fast and flat as possible. Ideally 700 yards and less as I feel that’s my ethical range currently. I want a short barrel because I will be running a suppressor. I currently have a donor rifle I can use but it’s a magnum bolt face if I decide to go that route. (Rem 700 300RUM stainless) Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
