[QUOTE="Broz, post: 549875, member: 7503"] Matt, different barrel manufacturers have different contours and they will differ in weight too. Not all #5 contours are the same. Yes, your 28" barrel with a brake will be 29" or so. I carry mine in my Eblystock pack for long hikes and I am 53 yrs young, something tells me you are younger and will do fine..:D Also, I don't want to go into a rail debate again but would encourage you to look at a NF base. In my opinion it will be an extra $75 or $80 well spent. Jeff [/QUOTE]
