[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 2657538, member: 94491"] I have a stainless mountain rifle (adl) in 30-06. I bought an ultralight mpi hand laid stock blank with magnum cross pins that I inlet, finished and cera-coated. I put in alum pillars and glass bed (full free float on the barrel)-- timney trigger - had it threaded and installed a 4 port mbm brake. It weighs 91 ounces with out a scope. It now shoots 3/4 moa-- but I can't shoot it "free recoil" like my std weight guns-- I have to use the "hard hold" method as it has considerable muzzle jump due to the light weight. I started with leupy rings but with the recoil and muzzle jump on the light rifle my scope was moving in the rings so I upgraded the rings to seekins brand with a full length pic rail--[ATTACH]408047[/ATTACH]- it's super light and handy in tight woods yet capable out to 600 yards or so [/QUOTE]
