Jgray: That sure is a nice Ruger. How much does it weigh? I'm surprised it weighs more than your CZ. My CZ550 American was a tank. The things I didn't really like about it, was the weight and the balance wasn't quite right. I also don't like the safety lever. Nevertheless, it was a real shooter...
I could carry (what is now Gunners 375H&H) my 375H&H all day long more easily because it was balanced better and felt better in the hands. Even though it was over a pound heavier:
Sometimes (for me) weight of the rifle is not the deciding factor.....
