    [QUOTE=Fisherman;724126]I'm a full of shit talking about an all rounder...the Husky makes me think about bush hunting but it never happens...

    I've been looking at recoil calculators and I hadn't been aware what a massive effect rifle weight had on recoil.

    Nah you are not dreaming a 284 or SAUM or 280AI will do the all round task you are after and very capable of kills at 600+.
    Read some of the posts on here from guys who run 284s or SAUM for plenty of examples.
    Stock weight and design can have a significant bearing on perceived recoil. But you don’t need to go heavy. I have cf stocks with limb saver recoil pads on most of my long range rigs including magnums. very light and recoil very manageable. I do all my load dev without brake or suppressor and have no problems with recoil. For a hunting rifle which I am going to hump around the hills I really I’m to keep the weight down. For an all rounder a 284 is hard to beat.
