[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 390853, member: 10"] JedLowe, Old friend, good to hear from you. The Raptor Stalker will be fitted with either a McMillan BDL or Manner MCS-T, either made with carbon fiber shell. Custom contour barrel which will be similiar to the LRSS barrel contour but with a shank length that is roughly half as long 4" compared to 8" and with a 1.250" diameter instead of the 1.350" for the LRSS. The contour will also be much lighter. The LRSS contour is similiar to a Lilja #8 whereas the Stalker will be similiar to a #4 in 7mm calibers and #5 in larger calibers. The tapered section of barrel will be fluted but unlike the LRSS which has a fluted shank, the Stalker will have an unfluted shank. Triggers will be Jewell on both models. The LRSS will have a medium PK brake. The Stalker will be fitted with a Small PK. To get under 9 lbs, a set of light weight rings will be used such as the NF Tactical Ultralights and a lighter weight scope will need to be used such as a Leupold Mk4 or something similiar. With a NF scope the rifle would likely be a bit heavier then 9 lbs. Hope this helps some. [/QUOTE]
