[QUOTE="Holycity73, post: 1707264, member: 106526"] Yeah, for a pack rifle I’d look elsewhere. Before it’s even scoped, you’re looking at almost 10 lbs unloaded. You’d have to remove the entire barrel to notice a difference after 100m under foot. If you’re looking for acceptable accuracy and energy in a small package, start with a model 7 in 308 as a base line. Add your needs and expectations accordingly. You’ll end up at the correct rifle for you on paper before ya know it. Or just buy a Barrett Fieldcraft in 6.5, 7-08 or .308 and be done with it. You won’t need a folder with that one. Hell, you could scotch tape it to your pack. It only weighs 5lbs 2.4oz. [/QUOTE]
