[QUOTE="CaptBeach, post: 655200, member: 31011"] OK...building a high end 300WM in the fall, I've got action, stocks on order and still choosing scope and barrel... The end goal is the lightest tactical rifle I can put together... Stock is a McMillan Game Scout with graphite cloth at somewhere around 30oz or so...scope going to be 22-28oz Barrel...anyone familiar with the Lothar Walther Ultra Light Weight sleeved barrel? According to my emails back and forth with them I can get a Varmint profile match quality 21 3/4" barrel blank pressed into an aluminum sleeve and be at 2lbs finished product...I don't think the ABS Carbon Fiber can do that... Feedback? Anyone familiar with Lothar Walthers accuracy? This particular barrel? Price is about the same $835-850 for the LW and $950ish for the ABS Carbon Fiber. Like I said...shaving weight is my end goal. The barrel will sport a brake. Capt Beach [/QUOTE]
