[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1254703"] Sometimes function over form comes out that way. I'm not fond of the color scheme on the rifle in the article but the rest is correct. How "light" do you want to go? All in, scope, ammo in the magazine, sling if you are a sling user, bipod if you are a bipod user: Is 5lb light? is 7lb light? is 9lb light? TI furnishings? TI action? Hollow carbon fiber+kevlar stock? Fixed power low magnification scope? #1 profile? 20"? Fluting? Carbon wrapped? Are we talking off the shelf or custom? The "best" off the shelf, "production" rifle IMO is a Tikka T3X Lite. The "semi-production" like Cooper or Kimber, well, you get what you want. Full custom, TI action, Carbon wrapped barrel, all TI furniture. Carbon+Kevlar unfilled stock. What is your budget, above $2,000 or below? Mono front pod, I haven't seen one but I think it has merit? I know a lady...... [/QUOTE]
