Ok....this rig suplants RobTattoo's rifle for Kewl Faktor. Growing up...by best buddy's Dad had one. Then my Dad got on a 600 collection kick and had every 600 made along with a 660 or 3. Those Birch/Walnut laminate stocks were to me....so bad ass as a kid. When they dropped again in the mid 2000s I almost bought one....and I am a Lefty. Super neat rifle with the Brown upgrade.My light weight timber rifle is Remington Model 600 350 Remington Magnum with 18.5" factory barrel in a Brown Precision Stock shooting 225 grain Barnes Triple Shocks. Scope is Leupold 2-7 x 33 and total rifle weighs 7 lbs. 3 oz. without sling and bipod.

444 mariln for me as well, with a 2x7 leupoldJust to be different, how about a 444 Marlin with a 2.5-8.
I really don't see a problem with the rifle you already have for that use. However, I totally understand the desire to buy something new.I’ve got a Bergara wilderness hunter in .300 win mag with a vx5 3-18 on top that’s a straight up shooter, but it’s not the lightest rifle and there’s a fair amount of recoil for off hand follow up shots in the thick stuff.
Thoughts?
300wsm BLR would also fit nicely on your list.BLR stainless in:
1. 243 Win shooting 95 TMK, or
2. 6.5 CM shooting 130 TMK, or
3. 7-08, or
4. 358 Win, or
5. 308
I’ve got .243 and 7-08 barrel for my BLR take-down that I’m considering having bored out to 338 Federal
Low light, very true. Good pointI’ve tried LVPO’s (1-4x24) and their low light performance leaves a lot to be desired.
I lean towards 42/44 or 50/56mm objective with premium glass now for a timber gun, as low light is a frequent issue.
