[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 586364, member: 2011"] My carry and I figure packable rig is a REM 700 338 RUM factory bbl w/tupperware stock and a Holland QD brake. Fully dressed w/o bipod and loaded (single shot) is 8 pounds. Bipod and web sling add maybe a pound. Bipod is not a Harris type but a solid custom bipod made for the rifle and carry system. I don't carry the rig in a pack unless there is no and I mean no chance of a shot along the way. With elk, bear, deer and woofs all on the shootable list one wants to be ready.:) As is she's been shot effectively out to 1200 yards. If an improvement is to be made to it it would be switching the Holland brake for a Muscle brake. Not that it is currently bad, can spot all shots at any distance under most shooting conditions. I think the Muscle brake would do a bit better with about the same weight. [/QUOTE]
