To me, approaching both my 69th birthday, major skeletal-neuro. issues and a love of mountain hunting, usually solo by choice, it is a *no brainer*.

I just spent 4Gs on a Kimber MA, Talley sts. QDs, Swaro Z3-3x9, Redding dies, Nosler brass and whatever. I have scores of fine, light custom *mountain rifles* and ONE aspect of this convinced me to spend scarce bux on another rifle.

This rig, in .280AI, gives me the maximum power in the lightest, STS CRF rifle available and with the 160NP at 3K, MV, kit will whack any quadruped in BC that I wish to whack.

I spent almost as much on a lovely custom HVA, etc. .280 Rem. in 2013, but, it is STILL several ozs heavier than this Kimber.....and with 59 years of packing loads in BCs mountains, every ounce counts to me.

YMMV, JMHO.......
