goodnews:
the 7x65R is a balistic twin to the 280Rem. the swaro scope is not a heavy scope, weighing less than 14oz. because in Europe we hunt before sunrise and after sundawn we use scopes with large objectives, for their light gathering abilities. I could use the regular 3.5-10x since I have one at hand.

that is a very impressive photo, thanks very much for sharing.

I guess that is two more votes for the 7-08...

Do you think that it would be wise to carry the K95 broken down and inside the back pack? My concern here would be running unexpectedly into a lifetime trophy with the rifle beyond reach.

Thanks,
