[QUOTE="vikingsniper, post: 912417, member: 76717"] Thats what i was hoping for. I figured bertram brass would be outragiously priced as well but its price is actually lower (from cheytac they are 2.15 a piece) than lapua cases. With the lighter loads i think one could get atleast 5 or 6 loads out of the cases before starting over. With 6 reloads a case the price would be around 1.50$ per round which is pretty **** good considering thats cheaper than buying match 308 ammo. The weight issue isnt a bigdeal. Most guys pack a 20lb backpack where ever they go and then complain about hiking miles upon miles witb a 15lb rifle on top of that. When i hunt i usually bring a knife, 2 bottles of water, my rifle, and whatever will go in my pockets. A 16lb rifle isnt really something im worried about. I dont live in harsh conditions like the rockies or some strange frontier (haha) most of the time i dont half to walk over a half a mile when i hunt and walk even less when i am plinking.what makes them so heavy anyway? The extra 2 inches of receiver? The dbm? Thanks everyone [/QUOTE]
