[QUOTE="COBrad, post: 702998, member: 1940"] Unlimited funds or not, I cannot come up with anything better than the Kirby Allen I already have. One of our members has generously offered to send me a few 165 gr. Matrix's to try in my rifle. If they shoot well in my gun, it may well be a perfect LR lightweight rig. Here is another idea I have been playing with for a while, and could well be my next LWLR rifle; X-Treme Shooting Titanium short action Not sure of the stock, started out thinking HS Precision Varmint, but Tanners Mickey Edge tech Gamescout probably fits the idea better Kreiger 26" Fluted Sendero taper barrel Jewell trigger Murphy Ti scope bases and rings I really like my S&B PMII scope, but it's not a lightweight. Premier makes a lighter weight model, and some of the other Schmidts are lighter as well, but I use MOA turrets, so that one would take a little research. I have not yet seen a really light weight scope that has turrets to match my Schmidt, or NF scopes. Caliber? 6.5-284 maybe, 7 WSM, what about a 6.5 WSM [/QUOTE]
