[QUOTE="Brown Dog, post: 59780, member: 1622"] Marco, Cost was around £100 per day - plus hotel etc. The AW was no trouble on the hill at all, due entirely to the fact that I had biathlon straps on it -just like wearing a rucksac! (I didn't put it in a slip, just covered the scope and muzzle). I think we tend to get wrapped around the axle a little on gun weight - if you were wearing a 20kg / 44lb rucksac would you notice much if you stuck in an extra 2kgs / 4.4lbs? -thats all the extra weight that the AW represents over more conventional rifles. On the flip side, I certainly did appreciate the extra weight when shivering-****-wet-through and trying to hold steady! Pete, Looking forward to learning more of your new business. Presumably you'll be offering Forces discount?! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Derek, Enjoying the weather up there? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
