[QUOTE="ducky, post: 2810124, member: 94420"] A suppressor is nothing more than a muzzle brake inside a can. It slows down, redirects, and cools escaping gasses. A 7 lbs rifle is still pretty light but it changes the recoil to something similar to my 7 lbs 8 oz 6mm Creedmoor. The Savage is a at least full pound heavier, that coupled with the scopes I wanted to use puts me back to 8 lbs suppressed. My goal was to be as light or lighter suppressed than rifles I already own. I have a 7 lbs 3 oz .30-06, 7 lbs 8 oz 6mm Creedmoor, and 7 lbs 14 oz .270 Win. I shoot the Creedmoor and .270 very well without a suppressor or brake, so they are my baseline. [/QUOTE]
