[QUOTE="CLP308, post: 464510, member: 30319"] I love my 788, but it tips the scales at 9 lbs w/scope. She can't hold it up without a rest.And it's finicky about how the brass is resized. I'm going to take her to some upcoming gun shows to see what fits her. Hopefully they have a good selectionI think the 308 is a bit much in a light rifle. My Model 7 ultralight is brutal in 308 with the tiny 18" bbl. Even loading 110gn sierra's light it smacks pretty good.I will definitelyy check out the Howa and Weatherby. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
