Just got back from the range after swapping the scope on my FN. 160s land an inch high, 150gr Sierras an inch higher. At 9lbs 14oz, not sure how much field time it's gonna get!
I'm thinking about starting a thread on this very issue. It's been a long hot summer in Florida,and I've been doing some reading about mountain hunting. A lot of the guys that chased sheep in the Asian mountains in the 1980s through the early 2000s were using pretty heavy rifles in serious altitude with rugged terrain. And they were doing so even when lighter rifles were coming into vogue. Today, most of us cringe about hauling a nine pound rifle into a deer stand. Interesting, huh?
