When a guys asks for opinions on A rifle vs B rifle why does everyone hurry up and offer up X Y Z? Obviously he isnt looking for a Ruger or Winchester etc...
Because he said....

Just get in shape, then carry whatever you already have and shoot most accurately. I have spent two seasons backpack hunting in the mountains with a Sendero.

I would pick the Browning because the barrel is shorter, it has less weight & costs less than the Remington.

I have been looking for an ultra-lite rifle for myself. I have looked at a Weatherby ultra-lite in 270-Winchester, I might buy it this weekend?

I say again, build a faux Ti and save $600 bucks. For the money there is no other semi custom lightweight offered by a manufacturer that can hang with one you pieced together yourself as it will be built the way YOU want it.
