[QUOTE="oldpilot, post: 1940236, member: 87110"] All my rifles but three are over 11 #s; 222, 270, and 7mm BAR, have short barrels....the others 26" barrels, 6.5 x 20/50 or 56mm scopes and pretty wood stocks changed to synthetic for hunting. Even on horseback all carried on shoulder. I take a light, cheap backpack, water, a book, space blankets, jerky and 30 feet of 1 inch mule tape, and my blow torch lighter...never finished a book before my animal comes along. My usual is 7mm WBY w140 gr or 300 WBY w150 gr ammo...been doing this for 66 years. [/QUOTE]
