I hae seen that savage has made a new gun in light calibers i am not sure as to the model # but it does look rather light and compact.
You could go the single shot route with rossi or h.r. Rem has real neet one with a twisted barrel looks like it might be fun to play with.

The Savages are hard to beat, espectally if your just wanting a good carry gun that will get beat around alot. If your looking for something with alittle more class the CZ 527 is also a great choice. It also comes with a single set trigger that is reall great when you have the time to get set up and take your time with those longer shots. These are my first 2 picks, but there is nothing wrong with the 700 Rem. eather and there are several others on the market that will do the job. Alot depend on your personal preferances.

Yes, a Savage is hard to beat. One of the rifles I have been looking at is the Savage 25 Lightweight Varminter for about $550 They also have a Savage/Stevens STV M200XP BA 223 with a scope for about $350. I don't know anything about "Stevens" but it sounds like a good beater ???
