[QUOTE="Pacecount, post: 1951157, member: 93281"] I like a rifle that has a little weight to it. A rifle I can take to the range and feel confident It will perform consistently, a rifle and scope that if dropped or banged will be able to perform. I find a light rifle in many cases will not hold up to the rigors. I generally “shoot” for a rifle that is 8 lb or slightly less + scope and bi pod. My McWhorter, H&H Precision (both have a Vortex AMG 6-24 x50) and my Tikka compact Tac (nightforce 2.5-10 x44 w a better FOV for shorter range). Each rifle with scope and bi pod is about 10 lbs.
