[QUOTE="Scot E, post: 662507, member: 10832"] Shawn, I am thinking out loud here but thought I would add to this thread in case others were having similar thoughts. I am thinking hard about one of these but I would want one built a little lighter for the long distance hiking I do. I mostly shoot big game out to 1/2 mile or so. What would be your suggestions on how short of a barrel I could get away with and how much less of a contour I could have without giving up too much of the stability and accuracy of the LRKM platform? I am not sure how the balance is but maybe I would be better to keep the length and just adjust the contour so things still balance well. I would be willing to look at something in .30 cal too if that makes a difference. What weight could I get down to? Any other thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, Scot E. [/QUOTE]
