[QUOTE="Crockett12, post: 1354757, member: 35100"] timberelk -- At the beginning you mentioned you wanted a lightweight rifle. Assuming you also want the complete package to be lightweight, it's best to look at the weight of the scope and the mounts you buy. Even look at the weight of the sling! Remember 4 oz. = 1/4 pound -- therefore ounces count and will quickly add up to an extra pound! If the idea is lightweight, by the end of the day you'll wish you didn't have that extra pound -- or two! I've got a Vortex scope on a rifle and I love the scope but it's not on a lightweight rifle -- because the scope weighs almost double a that of a lightweight Leupold. [/QUOTE]
