[QUOTE="jrock, post: 3074982, member: 78569"] The first questions I ask customers for UL rifles are, - Brake, suppressor, or none - Animals being hunted and expected ranges - Price point Based on the first two questions, I can narrow down my recommendations pretty quick. If you aren't running a brake, then short mags are a good option for terminal performance to recoil balance. If you are running a brake, almost any caliber can be made reasonably. Bigger TI breaks are great for UL rifles. Suppressors start to muddy the water considering their weight off the end of a small barrel, and overall weight distribution. The lightest components on the market cost. Costs can get to the point where one can spend over $200 to save less than an oz. My assessment on "light weight rifles are harder to shoot" is 'Yes, they show the slightest shooter inputs'. Therefore, they are not as forgiving and with practice, they can be shot very accurately.
