[QUOTE="112Savage, post: 2768905, member: 38801"] I am 6’0” 165 pounds and 34 years old. I carry rifles weighing between 8 and 11 pounds. Almost always carried in the hands. I live in the Appalachians and hunt between 2400’ and 5000’. Gun weight as a percentage of body weight to me is of no consequence. As an example I’ve recently lost 20+ pounds, the other day I went for a 3.2mile run carrying a 5# weight in each hand. That was a tough run even though my total weight was still less than it used to be. I think rifle weight is more consequential on strength and conditioning than total body weight. [/QUOTE]
