I am seeking the views of people who have spent a lot of time hunting in mountains and have tailored their rifle purchase/build to suit.

Having done some thar and chamois hunting a mate and I have been discussing the ultimate "best value" rifle for the purpose.

So what is it that you habitual mountain hunters use?

What factory rifles and scope combinations have passed the test of time on the hill ???

What cartridge is your favourite mountain rifle chambered for?

What are your good and bad experiences with rifles for this purpose?
