[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 436066, member: 2011"] Hmmmm, First thought is that a long range scope (for shooting 800 - 1500 yds and a lightweight 8 pounds, all up, are a bit incompatible in my way of thinkin'. From what I've seen lately a Win Mod 70 Featherweight in 270 Win or 280 Rem with a good scope would be a decent choice. I've shot the 280 and was impressed. I shot with a fellow shooting an '06 in that model with a mid range priced scope that was good to 775 yards. Plus every thing would be well under 2k bucks plus you'd have the time to tune it a bit if needed. Just a thought...... [/QUOTE]
