[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 921018, member: 30671"] Spent a few minutes looking at spec's. Most companies have weights listed, sometimes "lightweight" is about as meaningful as "organically grown". Google Weatherby, and look at their "Ultralight" is available in 270 at 5.75 lbs.. In a compact "Girls hunt too" and a "Whitetail Bones" with adjustable stocks (LOP) at 6.5 lbs. Other calibers as well. They have a couple of action types, and accuracy guarantees. The classifieds on this site usually hold some ideas. One thing to keep in mind is delivery times. November is not that far away in gun building time. Some stocks and barrels can be 6 months to a year out once ordered. So one of Len's, a commercial offering, or used custom, are realistically your choices for this year if you wish to practice much. Any good retailers in your neck of the woods to handle a few? At least initially pick one with lot's of product, some shops, like car dealers push what's on the lot. Flip side is at times the firearms section at large sporting goods is sometimes staffed by folks less than fluent in firearms. [/QUOTE]
