[QUOTE="rvander1, post: 393449, member: 11921"] Hi, I have a custom benchrest 1000yd gun: McMillan MBR Stock, Nesika Action, Krieger Barrel, Nightforce scope. Caliber: 6.5-284. I've competed a little bit at Williamsport, but that's a 3+ hour drive (each way) from where I live, so I'm converting this benchrest gun to a long range hunter and maybe a light F-Class. I'm getting a McMillan A5 tactical stock, and a new krieger barrel. Question: the gun currently weighs 17 pounds (in benchrest config). Does anyone know how much weight I can take off the barrel (so I can carry the gun in the field easier) and not sacrifice long range accuracy? Thanks in advance, Bob [/QUOTE]
