[QUOTE="comfisherman, post: 2491454, member: 8394"] I still think if your really shooting a long ways the bigguns just under Idaho legal will shoot better. The switch to lighter rifles is accepting the reality of where hunting is going as a whole. It's way easier to shoot a 10.5 pound rifle but way easier to pack a 6 lbd rifle. If long range is the only thing you do, your rifles should probably skew heavier. If long range is only an arrow in the quiver of tools, a lighter weight rifle with a fast twist, some long bullets and a bit hotter caliber will cover your bases. [/QUOTE]
