[QUOTE="Autorotate, post: 699791, member: 8073"] 14.5 lbs without rings/scope/bipod I believe. I'll hang it on a scale tomorrow for you. The stock is a very rigid/tough and heavy stock. I think the stock is 4.4 lbs. My research and weighing different barrel blanks led me to use the following rule of thumb for barrel blank weight planning: 4-4.5 lbs=Light Palma 5-5.5 lbs=Medium Palma 6-6.5 lbs=Heavy Palma Of course all depends on your batch of steel, bore/groove diameters, and the slight differences in what different barrel mfgs call a Palma contour.
