About LinkBacksMy current light LR rifle weighs just over 8lb, or 3.6kg. Has a 700g scope on it though, 26 inch barrel and brake. Doesn't really need to be any lighter given its pushing a 180gr pill at basically 3,300fps...
tui_man 2 has my Model 7 at the moment, putting it on a weight loss program... Fluted bolt, milling out handle, light bolt guts and shroud, chopping the barrel, fluting the barrel, light supressor, light Senator stock... Should end up about 2.7kg (6lb) scoped and supressed...
