[QUOTE="Aoudad shooter1975, post: 1925659, member: 102560"] Well my requirements are pretty simple I am more of a hunter than "shooter" so: 1. Short--or better say compact. I see a lot of guys have rifles with 28-30 in barrels--and I always see them say--the long barrel has not affected their hunting--well it does mine--and other than some extream cartridges I do not see the gain of much over 24-25 in barrels. I prefer tubes between 20-22 inches on hunting rifles--and cartridges that complement that length. 2. More of a vertical grip. This took awhile for me. I prefer a manners EH1 style stock really nice shooting off a PACK or prone. 3.Cartidges that are not extream. While I love speed I find the 6mm creedmoor, 6.5 creedmoor/PRC,7mm-300 SAUM/WSM,308 win, plenty to shoot as far as I hunt. Really out to 800 yards. 4. Lighter--while it does not have to be a flyweight--I sure shoot for 10 lbs or under scoped and loaded for most of my rigs. [/QUOTE]
