[QUOTE="cowyfremas, post: 2087272, member: 117136"] I’ve been dreaming up a build for awhile now and wonder if anybody has something similar. I’m thinking for deer and antelope mostly. any 6.5-277 caliber shooting 140-160gn 2600-2900 out of a 18-20” proof carbon, suppressed. Some sort of shorter friend chassis or fiber stock. Lightweight optic. (I’ve gone a few years with a 16 power on my rifles and shoot 1000 plus just fine.) run it off a tikka action with two piece matched rings and no picatinny base..keep it all sub 7lbs. if you have something like this. Fill me in on the pros and cons. Is it as useful as I think it would be? I need something I can whip around off hand quick as drawing a sidearm. [/QUOTE]
