After all my posting of questions and seeking good advice from you guys I ended up going with a Weatherby Mark V Ultra Lightweight chambered in 300 Weatherby! Cant wait to get it, supposed to be in by next Friday. Thanks for all the help with questions to you guys who answered me, been on several forums and this one is the best by far! Gonna put a Vortex HS LR 6-24X50 on top of it and call it good. Cant wait to start shooting once we get some decent weather here in Indiana! thanks again.
