[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 2030326, member: 101859"] I built a 6mm creedmoor for a customer that came in 4lb 13oz. Manners UC stock 17 oz.! Lilja #1 21" barrel Pierce TI action He runs 115 hvlds at 3030 fps in that 3 groove and its solidly sub .5 moa at a grand The killed this guy at 630ish last weekend Figure your 700 sa may add another pound or so. When it comes to light rifles, keep the bullets light and they will shoot. Don't expect a 6lb 300 mag to shoot to its potential. A lot of recoil and torque happens while the bullet is still in the barrel, thats why a brake doesn't do anything for your raw accuracy. The bullet has left the barrel by the time the brake does anything. It only reduces the shooters felt recoil, not the recoil and movement the bullet sees. Its a big misconception that you can build an ultralight and just put a great brake on it and it will act like a rifle with more mass. [ATTACH type="full" alt="pierce ti.jpg"]227737[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
