[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1008752, member: 10291"] My 6.5x284's run about about 10.5 pounds fully loaded. For my medium build it is my preference for maximum weight for carry but will still give me the weight/stability for accurate prone position 1000 yard work. Unlike my 300WM which runs +13# with an A3, NF, Rem Varmit barrel, I like to reduce the weight on my 6.5x284's by keeping barrel weight (.73-.78" at muzzle), and going with a lighter stock and scope which can save a few pounds. My Cooper that is 10.5#, has a #5 contour, fluted, 26" barrel(.78" at muzzle), Jacson Hunter stock, and a 5-20 Huskemaw scope. This is my favorite full purpose, long range hunting rig that I have used for quite a few years and it has been proven effective on game from 50-1000 yards. [/QUOTE]
