[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 821148, member: 1290"] Usually when one says "mountain rifle" the build is in the light weight direction typically a handy packing rifle. What you are describing sounds more like a heavy tactical build. Detachable mags and a picatinny rail are just more to pack. For a mountain rifle I would be thinking Remington or Pierce titanium action, a number 1 or 2 contour no more than 24", McMillan Edge stock, Tally light weight scope mounts and built in an ADL configuration. The caliber choice is okay. Being deer is heavy as your hunting I would also be looking hard at the 7-08AI to get the short action and save even more weight. [/QUOTE]
