Since the Remington Mountain Rifles appeared in the mid 80's, I haven't looked back. The first and most used is the 7-08. Have spares in 270, 280, and a 7x57 that is still nestled in it's box. The 700 KS in 280 and 30-06 is 7 lb scoped and the 700 Ti in an Edge Compact is super light but I keep reaching for the old 700 Mtn Rifle in 7-08.
