At 65 plus with a bad wing and a tendency to go further in than I should, I'm also into light carry/low recoil.
If you're looking for something light and handy, have a look at the Kimber Montana before you decide. Mine is in 7/08, weighs exactly 6.5 lbs scoped with a 1.75 to 6 Vari X III, loaded with 5, plus sling. Using Barnes 140 TSX I get an chroned 2900 out of a 22" tube.
A modified Mouser action (cartridge can be loaded directly into the chamber, unlike most Mousers), trigger like silk, McMillen stock, stainless and shoots super to boot. It ain't that 'different' but certainly meets the specs..
I also shoot a 260 in Rem 100XPR ( a long 'handgun') it gets a chroned 2750 with 120 X's and 125 Partitions.....out of a 15" barrel! That one is around 4 lbs scoped and loaded, great to carry but, unfortunatly, out of production.
