[QUOTE="osok-1k, post: 1581032, member: 106259"] If you currently own a good long action receiver, Remington 700 or Winchester 70 etc. you already have a starting point from which blueprint your action, add the barrel of choice with a twist you like, use your current trigger or upgrade and get a great stock made of carbon fiber or some other really light composite stock, Talley rings with a JB weld treatment which is better than lapping, your favorite optic and away you go with an old friend you took to the gym and cam out leaner and meaner and better in every way. The ultimate goal as you stated is to be a backpack hunting rifle where dependability, accuracy and weight are the primary requisites. What matters is that the gun shoots well and you can carry it wherever you need to go, the critters on the other end don't know or care what it looks or whose name is on it. [/QUOTE]
