[QUOTE="mike33, post: 390841, member: 14195"] I went thru the same thing on my new edge build. I wanted say around 26" so it would be like a factory sporter. Wrong way, then your defeating the pratical purpose of the edge. I took my smiths advise went with a 28" little heavier contour than i thought but compete gun is going to come in at 10.5 lbs less scope. This isnt that bad but i didnt want to compromise the perks of why i built an edge. Another route for weight and if you wanted to spend the money try Melvin Forbes at Ultralite Arms. He specializes in light weights. I have a 25x284 i bought used gun, sling, harris bipod, lupy 4.5x14 40 lens 30mm tube all comes in at 7.5 lbs. He builds is own actions which are slimmed down and his own stock. I couldnt believe a douglass barrel wiould shoot but mine does and thats all he uses. MIke [/QUOTE]
