I have their Titanium side port brake. Factory stock. Luepold high country rings and rail. Maybe it's the stock that's lighter ?IDK. Christensen action, 24" CF barrel, their BM and a McMillan HTG. NF 2.5-10 NXS...
I would imagine their stock may be a touch ligher than the McMillan. But IDK.I have their Titanium side port brake. Factory stock. Luepold high country rings and rail. Maybe it's the stock that's lighter ?

You are also using a scale meant to weigh 100+++ pounds of people. A postal scale may get you a little more accurate but IDK.I have their Titanium side port brake. Factory stock. Luepold high country rings and rail. Maybe it's the stock that's lighter ?
I thought about that. Maybe should try my digital fish scaleYou are also using a scale meant to weigh 100+++ pounds of people. A postal scale may get you a little more accurate but IDK.
DERAIL and sorry to the OP...
I don't think so. Lol !Ouch! Hey…..don't lean on the rifle when ya weigh it!
Does that big hole in the stock make it lighter? memtb
Would greatly depend on what powder is used, if it's a cooler burning or warmer burning powder.(flame temp). How much time between shots. Firing round after round without letting it cool will certainly shorten it more than anything.Since I got all you RUM pirates in one place, what kinda round count were/are you getting on those barrels? I had heard the barrels burn out pretty fast and I decided to go the 300 WM because of it. Was I lied to? Misled? Does the gubermint have a gun owner list? Was Jack Ruby actually Russian?
Now I'm questioning reality...
Earplugs too I hope, even when hunting.I used 99.0 - 100.0 grs Retumbo. Right at pressure.
Later I had a magna brake installed. I shot a lot more accurately with 40% reduced recoil. Made me a believer in brakes since 1996.
What ? I destroyed my hearing at a young age. I'm sure mostly gunfire, explosions, loud machinery, engines, loud music and loud switch rooms. I were hearing aides. Left ear almost 100% deaf. I've worn hearing protection for last 35 yrs. But the damage was done. My Son wore even with 22 rf because he didn't want to end up like me (I made him but only first time. He did it on his own after). Only time I don't were is while hunting. I know....Earplugs too I hope, even when hunting.
