This.

You didn't ask, but I'd do the special-run 6.5 CM Fieldcraft with the no.2 barrel over all you've listed (I wouldn't do the "regular" SA Fieldcraft with no.1 contour).

Or just get a 270 in the Barrett Fieldcraft. That would make the most sense.


I used the 21" #1 FC for about 3.5 months of hunting last year and have been using the 22" #2 for about a month now. They are both great rifles. I prefer the #2 mainly due to off-hand balance. When shooting from bags/rest it makes no difference to me. Really can't go wrong with either for all around use.
