It's a M70 Classic Stainless--used to be a 375 H&H--now a 338 EDGE. Action truing and lapping the lugs by Hart as is the barrel. The 30" BR1000 barrel (1.250x6x0.900 at the muzzle) is where most of the weight is--as you see it--21#. Premier Heritage 5-25x56 mil dot in milrads set in a Near Alphamount on top of a Near base. Watt's extended magazine handles the feed, Atlas bipod, Muscle Magnum 4 Port brake, all in a Manners T5A stock. I was attempting to make a "both shoulder sling-pack" to carry it the short distances I have to, but Len Backus's Long Range Shop just got some in; it's the cat's meow. I think I could carry it over a mile, but I have four great gun cases: my truck, my Honda, my snogo, and my boat and have no need to carry the rifle farther than say, 100 feet. Weight was never a concern. Consistent accuracy is.
Thank you all for your interest; I'm always "gazing on guns" as the wife says and I enjoy looking at rifles here.
