When I was first starting out in my hunting journey, the first firearm I purchased was a Remington 700 SPS SS in 300 Win Mag. It was my go to rifle for the first many years of hunting. In recent years, it has more or less collected dust. I'm looking to resurrect it for a potential Elk Trip and I'm wondering what recommendations are for a Stock vs Chassis. I'd like it to be lightweight so it is reasonable to carry for a days hike. I'm open to either a stock or a chassis but am leaning towards a Carbon Fiber stock of some sort.

I'm very old school pertaining to stocks….though, I do actually love quality synthetic stocks. In fact, though it's not actually a chassis stock…..I probably wouldn't own an AR 15, had I not won it!
The classic stocks, whether synthetic or wood…..just seem to have that special feel! Having/shooting a chassis type rifle…..would be like having sex with a robot!

If you are looking for "light weight", then there is only one choice….carbon. Manners or McMillan would be my recommendation.
