So I have been thinking about a ultra light hunting rifle build. Here is what I've got so far.
Pierce ti action
Ti recoil lug
Lightest contour barrel still able to flute.
Tally style 30 moa rings (I think) lighter that rail and rings.
Lightest bolt possible
Ti action and ring screws.
I like anything with a pistol grip or thumbhole. So I'm still looking for the lightest one I can find.
I'm thinking bushnell elite 6500 2.5-16 cause. Have one and it's fairly light.
This will be a 6.5 creed with a 22" tube.
I will be using it to carry while hiking and more than likely keeping ranges fairly close 300 yards or so on deer. Only go farther if it will hold a tight group being so light.
Really trying to make the lightest functional rifle I can. How's it looking any suggestions I'm nigh a missing.
