[QUOTE="OldElkHunter1961, post: 2464941, member: 121205"] If light is the goal while retaining accuracy and terminal ballistics look at the Weatherby Mk V Backcountry. I had a round birthday last year and got one in 6.5 RPM. I didn't suggest it earlier as I see it as a costly rig without wide or reasonably priced ammo availability. It's a tack-driving joy to carry and shoot. I hunt open, rolling grass and sage land at altitude. For me it's ideal. With a VX3i 4.5-14X40 lightweight, Talley lightweight mounts and a Murray A1 sling it weights 6 lbs 4 oz. I handload and have 400 pieces of brass, so ammo cost/availability are not issues for me.
