[QUOTE="Sykes, post: 1740068, member: 77814"] What you get with the mountain ascent over the Montana is a fluted barrel and bolt and the rubber like texture to the stock. Also the mountain ascent rifles come with a break, Montana rifles do not. In a 280AI the weight difference is only 4 oz with the mountain ascent being lighter. The mountain ascent subalpine is a sharp looking rifle! I had a mountain ascent 6.5 creedmoor and it was very accurate like all creedmoors but it did have a sharp recoil to it. Not painfully by any means just harder to controll. With practice and good fundamentals a guy could definitely learn to master the lightweights but they are not near as forgiving. [/QUOTE]
