[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 2175685, member: 64108"] Everything is a compromise, especially in optics but that's where I don't mind the extra weight because the gains are worth the extra half pound, especially when the weight is towards the back of the rifle. I have a buddy obsessed with the lightweight titanium bug but he carries 10 rounds of 30 cal ammo that each weigh over a half ounce each(a 200 grain bullet alone is ~about half an ounce plus the shell and powder=~ one lb total), and he carries a key ring with a dozen keys and car remote with bottle opener that is ~8oz WTH ? Why spend all the money on Ti and carbon only to offset it somewhere else. I run 3 Marches on hunting rigs, VX6 isn't a bad choice either but I also run big, heavy ATACR's on guns I want a 56mm objective. As mentioned I think Swarovski has light weight options also.
