[QUOTE="MS660Magnum, post: 1940992, member: 114655"] The other thing that I think may be relevant here is that I’m a sucker for the concept of a “do-all” rifle. I’ve tried M1A’s, AR’s (light, heavy, 10’s, and 15’s), Remington varmint, Bergara Approach, and now a Christiansen MPR. Cognitively I know that having purpose built rifles for hunting and shooting would be better in the end, but I buy off on the idea that I can somehow have a mountain hunting rifle that I could also smash an F class match with... not going to happen, but I keep looking. That “long range hunting rifle” concept might be what makes me shade on the heavy side. Ironic, since almost all of my kill shots are <200yds. [/QUOTE]
