[QUOTE="Ernie, post: 426756, member: 13"] My 338AX center-grip XP-100 is in the lightweight class, scoped is under 11 pounds. I have not done my drops to 1200 yards yet ( I[B] have spent more time with small cartridges this spring and summer, such as: 6.5-284, 7mm SAUM, and 6.5 Leopard {WSM} [/B]), but I believe that even with the recoil of the 300 grain bullets-quite more significant than the 250's that hitting at that distance will not be an issue. After all, it is just recoil, right:D Seriously now if you are recoil sensitive, have a flinch habit, or are scared of getting hit, then the practice time to make a lighter rig shoot good consistently at distance is going to frustrate you. Also, in some ways a specialty pistol is easier to shoot in that, stock weld, proper placement of butt-stock in the shoulder pocket, and worrying about your heartbeat transmitting through your cheek and or shoulder are not an issue for me.
