[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 910662, member: 2736"] First = What do you intend to hunt ? What do you consider "Light"? There are many calibers/cartridges that will work at 5 and 600 yards. All though the 300 RUM is one of my favorites, it may not be necessary for you needs, but if you want one I would build what you want. The action= a 700 Remington action will do nicely and stock availability is second to none. Also you can install a jewel trigger On it. Stocks are a very personal choice so you are on your own. (I like the laminates because of balance but they are a little heaver that the composites. Muzzle brake ? (You know what I would recommend Ha, Ha) A light weight 300 RUM will have plenty of recoil and the better the brake the more you will like it. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
