[QUOTE="A guy named Bob, post: 2091804, member: 116940"] Great thread, im in the process of putting together a mountain carbon for LR shooting and hunting. Here is what im putting together. Im in the process of building a light 6.5 PRC. The rifle weighs in under 6lbs. Im considering the VX5HD 4-20x52mm@23.5oz W/Talley rings@4oz. OR VX5HD 3-15x44mm@ 19.7 oz w/Leupold back country rings@2.9oz. Im of the opinion that quality glass is a must. I see people spend 1k-3k on a rifle then buy a cheap scope. I will add and carry half to three quarters a pound more for the better glass, adjustment, and reticle options. If light weight is the only goal, then you will need to sacrifice some quality options. My rifle will be under 8lbs with either option. Personally, I would consider a rifle under eight pounds to be light weight. [/QUOTE]
