[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 56374, member: 2736"] Greenhorn 50 & the other members are wright on. A walking around rifel is diffrent for a longrange hunter than a short range hunter. If your looking for 400 to 500rd shots dont worry about 2 or 3lbs . I have used mountain rifels [5 to 6 lbs] to heavy longrange rifels [12 to 15lbs] and liked the heavy best. Most hunters walk less than 5mi on a hunt so what,s 5 or 10lbs compaired to having a steady and accurate rifel. Taylor your rifel to your type of hunting not how far you walk. I allways have to laugh when some guy that drives his big S U V ,parks,walks around a 100rds to his stand and claims my 10lb rifel is to heavy. With out being crued if these guy,s would take a dump before going they could shave that 5lbs they worry so much about. Remember good shot placement and clean kills are what counts.
