Thanks for all the info! And giving everyone such a great deal! I don't own anything from you yet but plan on getting in on this! Pretty set on a 300wm in tier 1 but also would like to get something a little smaller for the girlfriend and range time for me. Thinking 7mm-08 but everyone talking 6.5prc has me torn. Tier 1 as well. Then deciding on colors... decisions decisions.

I've also ordered tier 1 in 300wm. 26" bbl. was planning on 28" but for the difference in velocity it wasn't worth the extra 2" since I will have an ultra 7 on the end. Animal on the other end won't notice the velocity difference. Should be enough for anything in North America at the distances I'm comfortable shooting

I have shot my buddies Christensen Ridgeline 300wm, and I have the same in 28 Nosler which weighs less than 7 lb and the recoil is not bad at all. To me those long range hammers are what a carbon fiber build is all about. I mean if it's light it's not a great bench gun it's meant to be packed up and down mountains or across rugged deserts where your going to want a long range hammer. If I was doing tier 1 it would be a 300wm, 7 rem mag, 28 Nosler, etc.
My 28 Nosler ultralight by APR weighs under 6 lbs and it’s not excessive pushing 195 grain Bergers with the brake.

Thanks for the input. I’m thinking tier 1 in 300WM with the brake for a good all around big game mountain gun.
