    If you're after minimum weight and don't care about a budget then you could buy one of those Titanium short actions from the states. Trueflight #3 22" chamber it in the NZHS Wilcat because it should fit the criteria pretty well. Senator carbon stock, shorter duralium suppressor. Scope I'm not sure on? Swaro Z3 3-10 or maybe Leupold 3.5-10 with CDS maybe in some Talley rings.

    That should fit the bill.

    Dreams are free.

    How's the project going Phillipo?

    I'm thinking along the same lines after having purchased a Kimber 308 & thinking of turning it into a "Bushpig" with short barrel, baby suppressor & topping it off with a compact scope with some decent optics. I'd still like enough magnification to indentify & vapourise bunnies out to 500yds so thinking a 3x9 won't cut the mustard. The only scopes that really fit from bush to varmints is maybe a Swaro 3-18x44BT or March 2.5-25x42.
