Even when I was able to run for distance I found a rifle that heavy difficult on the hills near Stratton Mtn. VT where my camp is. Of course I have heavier rifles for varmints and target. My first .358W. was a 99F and that was always good. The elevation does not have to be all that high to be a difficult go. Its how steep the grade is at least to me. ![[Linked Image]](http://purebound.com/AT/vermont/stratton_mtn_fire_tower_vista.jpg)
All guns should be locked up when not in use!

I had a Remington PSS in 308 with a Mike Rock 5-R barrel. It was a 5 grove with a 120 degree radis. Very accurate. Your barrel and crown looks very much alike. If you don't mind me asking, what did a barrel like that set you back?

I have a stainless MRC 1999 with their lapped barrel at 21 inches long. The muzzle is .650" in diameter and with an Edge stock it goes at 7 pound with scope, sling, etc.
I also have a Serengeti stock bedded for that action that brings the weight up to almost 8 pounds.
