[QUOTE="c_bass16, post: 912364, member: 20355"] This is my first bolt action LRH rig and as it sits. Scope, loaded mag, suppressor, bipod...it's right at 22lbs. I carry it in my Eberlestock pack, get to my intended spots, and watch. Lots of wide open space, mostly rolling prairie but rough pine canyons are everywhere. Just depends where I'm headed. I wouldn't hesitate to take the occasional off hand shot if I had to, but that's not what it was built for. It's a dream to shoot prone. I'm a young buck and packing 40lbs on a hunt isn't really a big deal. If I were packing 70lbs through the mountains, this probably wouldn't be the right tool for the job. Of course, I had to make two trips to get this buck out, one trip with my pack and the second for the dear. Might have been able to do it in one trip if my rifle only weighed 6lbs, but not likely.
