[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 826873, member: 41338"] Heavier rifles aren't that bad to carry if the terrain is such that your able to keep it close to your body. Steep terrain and loose or slick footing will cause your free hand to reach out to steady yourself and your gun hand to extend away from your body for balance. Do that a couple thousand times a day for X amount of days and you'll appreciate something that's not to heavy and well balanced. You can save weight by leaving the bipod at home and trim some weight with your scope selection. I'd think in terms of what it weighs "all up" (scope, bipod, ammo fully loaded...). 8 lb rifle isn't to bad if the terrain isn't to bad. [/QUOTE]
