Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

When I hear "mountain rifle" I'm thinking an ultra light weight, skinny barrel, "backpacking" rig.
That calls for a short action and that says 7-08 Though a 284 or one of the short mags would fill the bill.

Three pages of responses and no mention of the 7 x 57 Mauser.
Jocko would shake his head about that, but he would mention that the .270 is an excellent choice also.
Where you hit 'em is more important than what you hit 'em with. So pick your preference, practice a bunch, and get/stay in shape for climbing those hills.

280AI with a #2 at 23 inches, sitting in a Banser or an Edge. 3.5-10 with hold over dots/slashes Talley LWs. Had one of those for 30+ years...it used to be known as a 7Rem Mag....it works good too! 
The 280 Remington is overbore.

270....270, and 270. If it were a short action I would say 260.

A hunter gets his deer. A good hunter can make long shots. A great hunter likes it up close and personal!
