Negotiating on a used 7mm-08 M77 Compact I found. If that falls through, I'm also still considering a .308 M77 Mark II Compact found on Gun Broker for a good price, as well as a Ruger Gunsite Scout or a Savage Lightweight Hunter. Went back and once again shouldered the Lady Hunter and the Savage Trophy Hunter Youth, but they just didn't give me that "This is it" feel. Choices, choices - at least I've got some now that I'm pretty happy with. Who can compare Gunsite to Compact? Is that extra pound going to be that big of a deal if I sling it? I know a pound is a pound, but then again it should absorb the recoil better in .308. Anyone have experience with the Lightweight Hunter? I liked the feel of it better than the Lady Hunter.
