[QUOTE="Gcan, post: 1527382, member: 102867"] Is money a consideration? Are you recoil adverse? If not and the parameters are 400-500 yards accuracy and stopping Power. Just fantasizing. Titanium short 700 action Christiansen carbon barrel with ti break. 24”. Carbon fiber thumbhole stock. (I like thumbholes in rough or uncertain terrain just for control. (Christiansen makes one but there are many) 300 Winchester short mag. 180 grn bullets produce 2000 plus ftlb at 400. Not a wildcat of any kind. Something with quality oem ammo and data for. Since Id probably have a quality bino/rangefinder and spotting scope Id stay with a lighter scope, but that is a personal choice and situation dependant. A Leupold vari X III 4.5-14 type or some other quality lite one with Ti rings. MOA turrets but a graduated BDC type reticle. Hi x scopes and thin air (low oxygen) can be problematic. All in all I probably have a 6 lb gun. All I need is $4000 Simple and elegant rifle. [/QUOTE]
