I was looking for same kind of rifle,then I bought a Remington 700xcr in 270wsm. I installed a Burris Euro-Diamond 2.5x10x44mm with the ballistic plex retical. I used Warn bases and rings. Rifle is light enough for me and has the Tri-Nite coating for harsh weateher resistance. I chronograped theWinchester 150gr. Power-Point ammo at 3200fps. Winchester claims 3150fps. with their ammo out of a 24" test barrel.Very accurate too.
