[QUOTE="BoomFlop, post: 2341801, member: 55851"] I am finalizing my first custom build. I am concerned with balance of the rifle a little bit. I want the rifle to have a slight muzzle forward balance, however, I definitely do not want it to be butt heavy. Here is my build list: Kelbly Atlas Tactical (short action) (29.5 oz) Trigger Tech Primary Carbon Rock Creek Barrel (7mm-approximately Proof Sendero/Lite) ... would like it to be around 22" I believe to be shot suppressed Ag Composite Adjustable Alpine Hunter (38-39 oz) Hawkins Hunter Bottom Metal Accurate 300 WSM Mag Nightforce Scope (undecided exactly, but figure around 30 oz) Thunderbeast Ultra 7 Gen 2 (8 oz i believe with CB brake) How well do you think this rifle will balance with a 20", 22" or 24" barrel? Anyone have something close to this that can comment on balance please. Thanks Steve [/QUOTE]
