[QUOTE="Varberger757, post: 908967, member: 66992"] Hunting in rough terrain especially mountains demands light equipment! You should in any case take a close look to European single shot break action rifles (awfull long name). lightbulb A SSBA without scope weighs ca. 6 - 7lbs and they were originally constructed for mountain hunting. Use a suitable calibre like 280 Rem, 7x64 Brenneke or even a 7 RM if nescessary. Use a scope of best quality and low weight like Zeiss, Swaro or Leupold with a 42mm maximum opening of the objective. The whole rig will give you ca. 9,5 - 10 lbs on your shoulders. :) You'll find top used ones already for 2000.- dollares and those are made by premium manufacturers like Krieghoff, Heym, Blaser etc. Good luck with your choice!
