[QUOTE="dirtboy, post: 417754, member: 25918"] I haven't had a chance to take my gun cross country,but I have a 30-378 topped with a Schmidt&Bender 3x12x50 Mil Lp. and with the scope, picatinny rail, rings, ammo carrier on stock with 2 180gr accubonds, brake, My scale reads just under 10lbs. The scope weighs 32oz it self. I did have a carbon barrel put on it. That took alot of weight off. I personally dont think you need a heavy 15lb rifle to shoot 1/2 groups. Not with todays technology, as mine does 1/2 or less with FACTORY ammo and by no means am I a shooting expert. I would say with the right builder if your looking for a carry around the mountain gun. I would go with someting under 8lbgun) [/QUOTE]
