[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 647515, member: 2736"] I do not recomend them ether. It is just another element that can cause problems. There are other ways to save weight without sacrificing accuracy potential. You are using one of the heaviest scopes on the market and it is a very good one,but there are other good ones that don't weigh near as much (Some are as much as 2 pounds lighter). If weight is a problem spend the money on Carbon Graphite stocks and scopes under 2 pounds. I personally like the advantage of a heaver barrel and rifle combination. They are more consistant, heavy barrels are more forgiving to different loads and the heaver rifles are a steadier platform to shoot from especally at long distances. My mountain rifle (Elk Hunting) weighs 13.5 pounds and is worth the extra Carry weight when making offhand shots or in windy conditions. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
