[QUOTE="257Tony, post: 1325615, member: 67337"] I've always thought of a true mountain rifle as having a 7lb max weight as a bare rifle. Add a 20 oz or less scope with rings, 3-4 rounds in the gun and you're at about 8.5 to 8.75 lbs total. I'd consider maybe a 25"-26" barrel on that .270, flute and lighten the bolt where you can and you'll be right there. [/QUOTE]
