    Hey @rambo-6mmrem, the Hogue stocked 20” heavy barrel weighs 8.5lbs bare rifle. So with your walnut stock, scoped, suppressed and loaded, you wouldn’t get much change out of 11lbs at a guess. Maybe 10.5lbs.

    But I think the weight is an advantage, in these kind of accuracy field rifles. When I’m set up on a rough patch of dirt at a funny angle and thistles poking up my nose I like a stable, solid rifle.
