[QUOTE="snox801, post: 1386787, member: 54383"] I just built the rifle you speak of. I did pierce to action, bolt, firing pin, tally rings, 22" proof barrel. With the original built it was to light under 5lbs and would be impossible to shoot at distance. So I added weight back in things I really wanted. I did a manners eh5 thumbhole but had a hasting ultra light pad put on. Ti action screws. I actual had the same scope also with the same idea turrets and rectical for drop. Ended up going to the bushnell elite 2.5-16 it's only about 2 ounces lighter had mil dot and half the cost. I'm just a bit over 6lbs all done. I went 6.5 because as we all know it's the best thing ever made. Don't believe me ask the sales guys at cabelas or my friend of my friends cousin. Plus it gets great fps out of a short 22" tube. I did the magpull bottom metal because it was plastic and with the mag still very light. [/QUOTE]
