Any of you guys build light packable 338's

I have a 338 RCM with a 19" #2 fluted barrel--on a ruger 77 hawkeye...very packable.

I'd love to see some of you guys rifles--and build specs...338, sub 10lb...etc...

Pierce titanium action 338NM
Proof research carbon barrel 24"
Hawkins aluminum bottom metal
Proof research lightweight stock 20oz- stocky stocks
T-3 Terminator brake
Timney kelvin elite trigger
6.6lbs without scope
 
I have a 33N, mod 48 long range. 6 pounds 7 ounces for the bare rifle. I swapped scopes after this pic, needed a lighter scope to balance right. .625" muzzle dia is a fairly thin pipe for a 338, the next barrel might be a carbon wrapped barrel with a .8" muzzle.
Very fast sharp recoil, but its pretty dam accurate.
Put a T -3 terminator brake on it and it will cut the recoil in half.
My 338 edge weighs 8.6 and kick like a 308
