[QUOTE="StanleyActual, post: 2768919, member: 119220"] Agree with this. I spent quite a few years in the MC and carried scoped rifles between 15-20lbs on top of 125+ lbs of gear in some big mountains for a lotta miles. After carrying that <15lb rifle was a dream. At that time I was 6’ and 175lbs. I was carrying pretty close to my body weight in a typical load out back then. Now I was a younger / lighter me back then and in a lot better shape as well. I think it has zero to do with body weight and everything to do with physical fitness / capabilities. 100% individual based. Carry a rifle weight that will to carry it comfortably and 2 shoot it effectively at your intended range. [/QUOTE]
