[QUOTE="73driver, post: 2382134, member: 36473"] I have hunted the mountain states from Wyoming south to Arizona from 4,000 ft up to 10,000 ft. Gone up and down many a steep face. 7.5 pounds feels good and 8.25 pounds is ok. Heavier lets you be more accurate because recoil in a light rifle in a less than ideal shooting position-less than ideal form and the shot can get away from you. Under 8.25 pounds with scope should be ok. [/QUOTE]
