[QUOTE="Boss Hoss, post: 379913, member: 5060"] If built properly there is very little difference in hunting accuracy requirements. My 4.5 Krieger contours shoot bug holes but are built the same way with the same components as one of my match rifles. Example is my 6.5x284 the 16.8lb at 300 yards will shoot .15 MOA and so does the 8lb with scope sporter using the same ammo. Now if I were to rattle 15 rounds off in 3 or 4 minutes the Lt Wt would be at a disadvantage but there are many things besides tube wt to consider. Have fired 5 as fast as could load from the right side which is tough when feeding (competition actions are RBLP) individually about 45 seconds and shot perfect. Bottom line no difference for huntingand I have several---the builder and the components are the key. [/QUOTE]
