[QUOTE="shooter7, post: 1647854, member: 39303"] My CA Mesa weighs in a 9.2 lbs with scope, rings and ammo. The recoil isn't bad with my load (168 barnes at 3060 fps). However, in the realm of the 300wm, that is a very mild load. I've done the 212 eldx with 77gr of H1000. That is a pretty stout load. The 168 moving "slow" is plenty capable out to 600 yards which is all I really need. I also don't use the brake because I find myself in tight timber fairly often and don't like the extra 2 inches of barrel lenght. In the future im considering going to a lighter optic and hopefully get it under 9 lbs. [/QUOTE]
