[QUOTE="Troy, post: 23431, member: 106"] You could loose enough weight if you gave Marvin Pearson an call. He makes custom rings and bases. I have a ring/base set up from him that weighs about 4 ounces at 1.995" in height wiht a 20 moa taper. My combination cost 170.00 which is a lot cheaper than having your gun cut and drilled to death. Fluting the bolt is very drastic and costly and will save you a couple of ounces at best. I personally would flute the barrel before I started cutting inches off. With the combination of the Davidson bolt shroud over the factory you will save 1.5 ounces. Get Marvins rings and bases and I am sure you will be fine. Marvin's number is 1-360-748-3429. When you call him tell him Troy Glass says you make the best rings and bases for silhouette. I like to plug his product because he does excellent work and is a hell of a nice guy. [/QUOTE]
