Why not an AR carbine of some type?
How light would you be able to build an AR in 7mm08 or 260?
I would think if you picked out each component you could make one fairly light.
Your on the right track with the 7mm, and since you have the dies. It will easily surpass your 700 mark for wolfs, fit the scabbard fine.
You might even squeak a little more barrel length keeping the overall length at 26" if you use a shorter brake. I'd use a #5 or 5.5 at a minimum though. The horse is doing most of the packing anyway. I'm not sure you'll get 3000fps easily with 195's in a 24" barrel but even if it's 2900fps it will do the job with a .800+ BC.
