I can understand folks being concerned about the 4 oz business.

In and of itself 4 oz's doesn't mean much, but if you ignore 4 oz's, 4 times, you now have a pound; and you sit there looking at the rifle on a scale saying..."Where'd that extra weight come from!!!".

In short,it's the cumulative effect of 4oz here and 4 oz there that makes an 8 pound rifle , a 7 pound rifle....and so it goes.As you juggle, you can lose or gain weight anywhere from the action, or barrel,or stock , or scope and mounts.

Working with standard stuff like M70's and Rem 700's you have to pay more attention....but to me Kimbers are built right and balanced about perfectly as they come...I don't really care too much for a rifle that is very heavily weighted forward.They handle like railroad ties..
