    I'm yet to test this on flesh yet, I'm hearing good reports about the 325gr Hornady leverolution ammo which I'm using for this rifle.
    @Sasquatch are you going to suppress it? Does the foresight just unscrew? That thing would look awesome with a DPT overbarrel and probably reduce the kick a fair bit I bet too!

    Should be well under 3kg complete.

    It will be a little less than a factory Montana just due to the short barrel
    It's unmodified otherwise
    The Dpt on it has 12 baffles for subsonics but I also have a titanium oceainia defence that's 170ish grams if I want to go superlight

    I dont have any way to weigh it

    @308mate will probably keep it in it's original config. Williams front sight and rear aperture are very fun to shoot with.

    Your not wrong tho, would look pretty rad with a can on it.

    A couple new rifles for me. Traded my 6.5x55 t3 for a 308 t3 from @Gapped axe ( cheers for that) straight to the chop shop for a 16'' hair cut. Much more usable length rifle for me. Running the 1-6 vortex for now as that's what I have. Magnification is perfect for me would like to go lighter one day.

    Top rifle is Kimber Montana in 223. Also 16'' chop with magnum suppressor. My new favorite.
    Bill999 and tikka like this.
