[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 2072318, member: 69478"] I built a .284 a couple years ago on a Remington 700. I went with a Bartlein #3 and it was a good bit heavier than the factory Remington sporter barrel. I would say it’s 1-1.5lbs heavier. I don’t mind it, but it’s bigger than I was expecting even when looking at the contour chart. I would say #3 would be the heaviest for a carry rifle in my opinion. The Bartlein 2B would be a better choice if you’re trying to get closer to the factory barrel weight. Accuracy will be equal. Accuracy more so depends on how well the shooter can handle recoil in a lighter rifle. To add. My rifle is a Remington 700 long action ADL in a limited edition ADL laminate stock. It’s topped with an Athlon 3-15x HMR in Hawkins rings and the barrel is 26” with a brake. It weighs right at 9.5lbs scoped. Without the scope it would be around 8lbs. [/QUOTE]
