[QUOTE="kcebcj, post: 310482, member: 10391"] I knocked around exactly the same problem and after talking with the smith I decided on a Brux #5 contour. After it’s chambered and finished at 26 inches it will lighten up a little over its posted weight. I chose not to have it fluted but fluting I think picks up around half pound. I have been trying to find the sweet spot between backpack rifle and a dedicated long range rig. I think this rifle will be at 9lbs before the scope. Good luck with your project. [/QUOTE]
