Magshooter,
Your setup should make for a nice lite rifle. 😃 I've got 2 other tikkas with Zeiss Terra 3-9X42 that I use for mountains and hunting where I do a lot of hiking. The Super Sniper I put on my Swede is kinda heavy but I'm planning on useing that rifle mostly for Eastern Montana hunting where long shots are usually the norm.
I could easily see myself going with a setup exactly like you've explained and useing my Swede for packing in the mountains of Western montana. I'd probably load it with a Barnes 120 or 130.
Best of luck with your new rifle and hunting this year
Shod
