[QUOTE="memtb, post: 1939881, member: 75451"] For me personally, 8 to 9 pounds “all-up and ready to hunt”. Much lighter and you lose some stability, much heavier.....they get a lot heavier in steep country! ;) If it’s a high recoil rifle, you may consider more rifle weight or the “cursed” (by me) brake! However, if your pretty recoil tolerant, you can comfortably and accurately shot some pretty high recoil rifles at 9 pounds or slightly less....without a “weed burner” installed. As stated in the opening line....my personal opinion! memtb [/QUOTE]
