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.

I have 140's and 150's loaded in the 7-08, 160's in the 280AI and the 7 Mag has not been shot yet. I have 160's, 162's as well as 168 and 175 's loaded for the 7 Mag.
As far as what I would use on what animal?.... I can't see it making any difference. A hole through the lungs is a hole through the lungs, nothing will live. Which one I carry will be decided upon,...well, which one I decide to carry for no other reason. I tend not to over analyze this stuff.
