[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 945773, member: 54178"] As I said in my earlier post: "WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY" With titanium actions, carbon fiber wrapped barrels and polymer stocks a .300 Win mag or .300 Norma mag can be in the 8 lb. range with a scope and aluminum rings. BUT, mon Dieu! the heavy recoil from that light rifle must be managed with a good muzle brake, good recoil pad and, as stated, a shoulder pad would help as well. So there you have your LR mountain rifle in a managable weight with managable recoil. It ain't rocket surgery. [/QUOTE]
