[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1060019, member: 30671"] Not necessarily hunting, or backpacking. I'm attending the Non Typical Outfitters shooting school in August, as a dry run to see how much back country I have left in me. 9lbs has always been where my limit is. I'll be taking my .338 RUM, Model 70 pre-war action, Krieger barrel, Mcmillan Lazzeroni Thumbhole stock. Its taken other forms and used other optics successfully. The Leupold Mark 4 3.5-10x has been good to me on a variety of hunts, but lacks a bit with my older eyes. The ATACR 5-25 lacks a bit in profile and weight. This year I'm moving the current ATACR to a 14lb Win Mag for a committed long range set up, and hopefully put the new 4-16x F1 ATACR in play. All tradeoffs, but that's my current thinking. I'll let you know how it works out. [/QUOTE]
