[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1499035, member: 75451"] My opinion is 9 pounds (scoped, fully loaded, and slung)....my “hunting” rifle comes-in at 9# 1 oz, as described. The recoil ( 55+ ft/lbs @ 20+ fps) while it’s an “attention-getter”, is certainly not an issue. I’m not a “tough guy”....but would prefer a light rifle with a little extra recoil over a heavy rifle with less recoil! However, about 600 yards on game, with near perfect conditions, is my range limit! memtb [/QUOTE]
