I don't need one but just out of curiosity what is the barrel weight?

 

[Wedgy]

It's already boxed up and in my car or I would weigh it, but probably a little over 2 lbs range. The 3 that I have shot all shoot well but they heat up fast.
I found this searching a Savage Shooters thread;
"The LWH FW 20" barrel is right at 2.0 lbs." add the lug and nut to that.

Thank You.

Keep up with the Ti actions as far as weight. Just might be an option. Thank you.

Dang I haven't seen them that cheep. I've been on the look out but they've all been around $800. I have a couple of other Savage projects I'm working on right now. Hopefully I can find one like that when I clear up some space. Might just buy that one anyway. Haha

I have one of these in 270 and it shoots dimes at 100 yards. Awesome shooter.

I think they have discontinued the lightweight hunter in that line and call it something else now, like lightweight Storm, more expensive of course.

Yes, they have the new one with the Proof CF barrel, they can be found for $1200 which isn't crazy. I would've considered it if they were more and had a CF stock too. They seem to be good rifles but I'm building a Savage with a Proof right now. I'd love to get my hands on just an action to build on, or even find one used on the cheap.
