Due to health reasons I'm trying to find a light rifle to replace my 06 for packing through the woods.The primary target will be small to medium deer,nothing bigger.Where I hunt,the max shooting distance is about 400 yds.Very rare,but possible.I don't enjoy recoil,so a smaller caliber would be good.I checked out the Ruger compact,but it was to short.The Rem. Ti. chambered in .260 looks good.I like a 20 inch barrel so I'd have to shorten it.Can the barrel on the Ti. be fluted or is it allready a thin barrel?Is there any other rifles I haven't found yet?
