New .270 win.
I' m purchasing a .270 win and have it narrowed down to two options. I want a fairly light weight gun for antelope and mule deer. The first option is a Remington 700 Mountain rifle in a laminated stock / stainless. The second option is a used Sako Finnlite, also stainless synthetic. Although the Sako is used, it shows very little wear & I believe it was actually a factory demo gun. If I go with the Rem., I evetually could put a kevlar stock on it and reduce the weight further. The Sako is probably as light as it' s going to get. The Sako has a shorter barrel, 20 7/8 inches, while the Rem is 22 inches. Any opinios would be appreciated.
