[QUOTE="Backcountry_IDN, post: 1469560, member: 106153"] I built the one on the left with a 111 action in .300wm as well. At first I went with a nightforce 5-20x56 shv. It did great! Had no complaints except for how heavy it was. 29.5oz. it's definitely not extremely heavy. But when you have a 4lb stock, #3.5 barrel, and a Harris bipod. 14lbs dressed is heavy for a pack rifle. If I were to do it all over again I'd go with a different stock for sure. Or saved up more for a carbon fiber fill. I now switched to a vx5hd 3-15 and cutting out 10oz makes a difference. Not to mention way better clarity on the vx5hd. Even at 1000yards I don't ever throw it on 20x so the 3-15 was a better choice for me. [/QUOTE]
