[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1515598, member: 12995"] Remember this, the smaller the diameter of the bore, the more barrel material there is for the same outside diameter, which equals more weight. So, a .243 Rem will weigh slightly more than a .308 Win in the same exact rifle. The new Ruger American in 6.5 Grendel would be a cool one. I've been wanting to get one for a while now. I built a 6.5 Grendel AR back 4 years ago, and I love the cartridge, but think it would really shine in a bolt-action platform. And the fact that it's already threaded 5/8x24, and accepts AR mags is a huge plus. The price ain't bad either.
