#3 on this list
X-Bolt Hells Canyon Speed
Browning
The wet-and-nasty rifle. Cerakote everywhere, a composite stock that ignores humidity, and a 60-degree bolt lift that clears a big scope. Detachable rotary magazine feeds without fuss in the cold.

#4 on this list
110 Ultralite
Savage
Carbon-wrapped barrel and a user-adjustable trigger and length of pull. Six pounds means it is still on your shoulder on day five, and the accuracy penalty for that weight is close to zero.
