[QUOTE="P7M13, post: 2434379, member: 94154"] Didn't read all four pages, but what do you consider a light rifle build? I bought a LH Savage SA with tactical bolt knob, an accustock with a cool paint job, Ken Farrel rail, Loth Walther 20" barrel in 260 Rem, Lapua brass and Redding dies off different members here for $625 all in. Assembled weight is 6.5 lbs. Bought a Burris Fullfield E1 scope to put on it, but have't gotten around to that. I suspect it'll be just a tad under 8 lbs when done, using Leupold steel rings from my drawer. That's 1 lb heavier than an ideal coastal range mountain rifle (steep hills, *thick* brush), but still an easy one-handed carry while out stalking. [/QUOTE]
