[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1510815, member: 11960"] Hitting 8# scoped is pretty easy with a variety of factory guns. I’ve got a factory Rem 700 SPS stainless in 300 RUM in a B&C Alaskan Ti stock that weighs 8# 2oz ready to hunt, and that's with the 26" factory barrel and bottom metal. There are a couple models from Kimber that should be at or below the 8# scoped mark as well. Getting below 8# scoped is when it starts to get expensive. If you budget allows it, check out some of the NULA rifles. You'd have a hard time building a lighter rifle for any price. [/QUOTE]
