[QUOTE="1doug, post: 105940, member: 3863"] [ QUOTE ] To the average weekend shooter, would it be worth having a rifle chabered for 338 edge rather than the 338 RUM? [/ QUOTE ] If you reload YES, if not then no. [ QUOTE ] was thinking 26-26.5" stainless steel barrel by a premium barrel manufacturer with the addition of a muzzle brake [/ QUOTE ] About a no 6 contour fluted @ 28 inces plus a brake. [ QUOTE ] to get a complete gun weight around 9.5-10 pounds [/ QUOTE ] I would not get hung up on a set weight, you can always cut 2-3 pounds out of your pack to make carring the extra weight of your rifle. [ QUOTE ] Also how practical in a hunting situation are target nobs, mil dots and range reticles such as the NightForce 3.5-15X50mm NXS with the NP-1RR [/ QUOTE ] very practical, and i would suggest the np r2 instead. Just my opion d-a oh welcome aboard [/QUOTE]
