[QUOTE="rfd, post: 959323, member: 80476"] the rockite in both the fore end and butt stock added just over a pound. the real weight additions were in the scope and bipod. i wanted the weight. for a lighter fore end stiffening, i'd either add lightweight filler (plastic or hollow beads, perhaps) to either rockite or slow set epoxy. after "bedding" the fore end, i sanded down the innards (rar's need particular attention to the fore end upper sides) to make sure there was plenty of float for the barrel. dang, that front end is now super Stiff! i wish i could get some varget, all i have left for rifles is h4895 and h4350, boo hoo, when will this "shortage" be over if ever?! working up a bunch of loads this week with both powders and hornady v-max boolits in 58, 75 and 87 grains, will shoot 'em up next week.
