Mountain/ Lightweight rifles

I wouldnt own a rifle with blued steel, that's just my personal preference

Yup, that's why they make different flavours of ice cream! :D

I find a stainless rifle with a good synthetic stock way more attractive than most of the blue and wood rifles I see.

:D
 
Seems like the WSSM's and the SAUM's are the preferred cartridges for sheep among the hunters here 8)
I remember when many predicted they were a flash in the pan... :wink:
 
If you want a really light rifle, I always recommend sticking to a cartridge that won't beat you up too. Either 7mm-08 or 260Rem are easy shooters with pretty good down range performance. A Kimber 84 Montana weighs 5lbs 3 oz in 7mm - 08, or 260 Rem. but these are both pleasant cartridges to shoot in this light a rifle. Retail on the rifle is pretty close to the Rem700 Mountain/lightweight guns too.
