I ordered my ultimate elk rifle from Mr. Forbes ten or so years ago: a NULA 28 in 7x61 Sharpe & Hart Magnum with a 26" #3 barrel. Even with added weight per Mr. Forbes suggestion, it balances perfectly, is accurate, and recoil isn't bad. Weight with Leupold 2.5x-8x scope is under seven pounds and eaily carried in the mountains. Shoots very well and on it's third barrel. It does fine on bull elk with either Partition or Barnes bullets. Great rifle...
