Hello. Ive been a lurker on this forum on and off for a few years.
I have a browning xbolt in 308win that ive been using for the past 20 Years. Its been a Great gun, but i find that my hunting habits have changed and i need a weapon that filla the following criteria.
A) light weight because im traversing Mountains and stalking the fields a lot.
B) long range capabilities and higher stopping power. (i hunt a lot of moose, around 50% of it is driven hunting).
B) left handled operation.
After doing a lot of research ive found 2 alternatives.
1) CA mesa TI in 300 win mag
2) Weatherby backcountry in 300 wby.
The difference between these in price in norway is around 200$
The gun will be outfitted with a magnum silencer and a march 1,5-15x42 scope
Which would you choose and why?
