Thread: What does your suppressed huntimg rifle weigh?

How much does my suppressed hunting rifle weigh? Too bloody much apparently ha ha.

My Howa 308 20 inch barrel, dpt mk1 with Talley 30mm rings and vortex hs 4-16x44, comes in at 4kg loaded.
It's too accurate to mess with, I am tempted mind you

The wife's Tikka the 7mm08 with 20 inch barrel, dpt, Talley 30mm rings holding vortex viper HS 4-16x44 comes in at 3.5kg. Not a lot in it really, both in factory stocks.

Sako A7 roughtec pro 7mm rem mag with 24 inch fluted barrel, Hardy gen five stealth, factory bases, Warne 30mm steel rings and surprise, vortex viper hst 4-16x44 weighs in somewhere around 4.5kg (slightly over I think). Again, too accurate to mess with. I used to have a Bushbuck bipod attached to the front of it as well which put it over or just on 5kg I'm pretty sure.

Sorry that's 4.8kg for the rem mag, ready to hunt with no bipod.

All this is making me want to switch to a brake for the rem mag and rebarrel the Tikka to 308. Or rechamber the 7mm08 to 284 and just use that for everything...
