[QUOTE="Philward, post: 2587733, member: 92604"] I have that same scope, 16oz I think, just mounted on a rem700 mtn rifle in 280rem. Change scopes would be the easiest, an equivalent Leupold would be 3oz lighter. Cut barrel to 20", maybe lighter rings and bases(?). I use SK bases and their one piece steel rings on 2 other mtn rifles and not had any issues in the many years they have been mounted. [/QUOTE]
