7mm-08 in a Kimber Montana...5lbs 15 ounces scoped
Custom 700 in 280AI....7lbs even scoped
Christensen Mesa in 7 Mag....8lbs 4 ounces scoped

Light, medium and heavy..


With those three you'll need nothing else.....
Rembo

what bullet weights are you using in each of your rifles? Do you use a specific gun for different animals or different hunting styles?

My 280ai will probably be about 8 pds scoped, maybe a little lighter if I switch scopes, currently have the Leupold vx6hd 2-12x42. May go with the Swarovski z3 3-10. I'm not too concerned with weight as long as it shoulders/points and balances well.

My 7mm Rem Mag was just over 9 pounds, not great to carry all day, but shoots well.
