Light weight rifle question

My pic would be the Sako Finnlight better quality and accuracy. I justpiced mine up from Ellwood Epps 1049.00 in .260 I was told they have a few more in stcok call and speak with Wess if you are interested. The new Rem are going to way to expensive this year, I can gurantee that new Alaskan T1 will be over 1600.00 and the new mountain rilfe LSS will be at least 1200.00 or more.
1600 dollars for a Remington holy s**t go with the Kimber.
 
I found a Finnlight in 300 mag new for $1299 but was wondering how a rilfe that small would feel behind a 300 mag??
Anyone shooting a Finnlight in 300 mag?? Whats it like to shoot compared to a 30-06??

Cheers!!

WAS in bashaw sports yesterday and pud thought that were going to be around $2100. weight...6 lbs for standard calibers and 6 3/8 lbs for a 300 win mag
$2100 that's nuts.Especially with all the quality issues lately.
 
Rembo said it already, grab his 7-08.

The new Ti Alaskan? The whole idea behind the original Ti was a light rifle barely in financial reach of a lot of hunters. Then they give it a magnum contour barrel with flutes, add some meaningless stuff and end up jacking the weight and price. Idiots.

Otherwise 280_Ackley nailed it. Grab a LSS MR and sell the stock. Pick up a take-off Ti stock and you save a ton of dollars. In fact I just did this...bought a SPS stainless 25-06 and had the barrel turned down to MR contour. I'm putting it in a Ti stock and will have a 6 1/4 pound, 24" 25-06 for less than $900. $2000 for an "Alaskan"? Not very likely.
 
Big money

Wow upwards of $2000.00 for a Rem puts you within a couple hundred more for an HS Precision, now there is as fine a light weight rifle as there is.FS
