[QUOTE="kiwi3006, post: 834159, member: 8927"] My aim with this build was to get it as light as possible. It has the original factory barrel and the action has not been trued. I fluted the barrel and got it threaded for a non-directional muzzle brake. Bolt has been fluted and a light weight firing pin used. I made a carbon fibre stock for it (16.5oz). The scope is too heavy but the magnification is perfect, it is a Bushnell 6500 2.5 -16 x42 sitting in lightweight Talley one piece bases.. The bare rifle weight is 5lb 4 oz, and is 6lb 10 oz with scope and bases, no bipod.

The a-max load needs some tweaking. [/QUOTE]
