[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 2203479, member: 75779"] I shoot a 338 edge and it weighs just under 10# loaded. Even with a good brake, you better hang on when it goes bang. I wouldn't want it any lighter. In your situation, I'd look at a 33N and hammer bullets. Running lighter bullets helps with the recoil a lot. I noticed a big difference going from a 300 Berger to a 260 hammer. You could go even lighter. Personally, I don't like hunting guns under 8.5#. [/QUOTE]
