I spent another $100 and put a Timney trigger in it and with the better trigger it now groups d5 shots into a 1/2" more often than not. It definitely fits heavy catagorey, I haven't weighed it but with a 6-24 Weaver on it I am guessing around 10.5#. drover I second this. Not pretty, kinda heavy, but accurate. I was able to adjust the trigger in mine instead of changing it out. My scope is a 4-12 Nikon Monarch. Quickly becoming a favorite gun.
