Accuracy is KING (either cartridge is capable) !!!
At 5'6'' and 150lbs. I prefer a complete rig at +/- 7.5lbs.
I have very definitive "personal" preferences in a mountain rifle - Obviously "light weight", medium contour stainless barrel, good trigger, synthetic stock, +/- 4x-16X 44MM scope
Lastly, I am not recoil sensitive - I actually enjoy the "kick" !
