[QUOTE="derfssor, post: 2314290, member: 117636"] Do not know what your weight limit is but 8lbs is not all that hard to carry. I have used 338’s, 270’s and 06’s for Elk. They all work but a light weight 338 is going to be very stout, even with a muzzle break. The 06 and 270 or even a 7mm light weight would be the ticket for light weight. I now use a 7mm mag Christensen Mesa for my elk work. It comes in at 8.5 lbs total with muzzle brake and shoots extremely good. 3/4 @ 200 consistently, i will take that any day. Oh, it will not break the bank either. Goog luck on your quest. Just for info i am 69 years young. [/QUOTE]
