Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Favorite Lightweight Rifle?

This thread reminds me of the one time that I got to handle and shoot a ULA rifle. It was chambered in .338 G&A and it's the only time I saw stars (during the day) when shooting a rifle. It went to Africa with the owner who described it a laser beam that caused plains game to "wobble and shiver" before they dropped dead.

I have four centerfire Kimber rifles but only the 84M Montana is truly lightweight. I gave that rifle to my girlfriend to replace the 12lb+ 6.5x47mm Lapua rifle she was hunting with and she loves it so I suppose I'm down to three Kimber rifles now ... all 8400 models. The Montana is chambered in .308 Win and has a Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40mm scope with the RZ600 reticle. It has an Adirondack bolt handle and MA extractor. I worked up a 165gr TTSX load for it (see target below) that my gf used to take a whitetail in November of last year. It's a great shooting, easy carrying rifle that I only get to look at these days!
