[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 1119940, member: 14204"] Because of my eye sight, I take advantage of the scope's higher magnification if all possible. Below is my .270 AI topped with 4-20x50 Burris Veracity. The rifle as seen is ~10 lbs. It is NOT an ideal mountain carry rifle or in the thickets but I do take her up and down the Montana mountain wilderness. As far as balance goes, my set up in NOT meant to be shot unsupported because it is front heavy due to the 30" Lilja barrel. In short, this boils down to personal preference, and the end user's willingness and ability to carry the extra weight. This is just me but I stopped worrying about a few ounces or so of weight and concentrated on a year around physical conditioning instead ... but have to admit it gets harder and harder to keep up with the young ones. :D:cool:gun) Good luck and happy safe hunting/shooting.
