I know this is a show me tread but anyone know the weight of a interarms Mark x in 308? It is total factory no mods with a wood stock and no iron sights. I cant seem to find any factory specs. Would have been built in 80s - early 90s. Its part of a group of firearms I am coming into. I wont be picking them up until November.
Life can be rough on us dreamers.

My Model 96 American 30-06; the rifle that goes on nearly every trip I take at least as backup: She likes 168 gr NBTs & Hunter: Ironic; I keep building custom rifles but this one continues to be used A LOT. It now wears an FXII 6x36mm LRD in TLWs.

I will be going to Greenville Pa to a high school graduation this week and plan to stop and fish the Neshannock Creek there at Volant. I have fished it a couple of times in the past and have always had a good time.

VA Hunter, Stop by and say hello .....I live directly across stream from the Orvis fly shop. My property line is actually mid stream of the Neshannock Creek. The Whelen is my favorite rifle. A true custom work of art...that goes hunting

Billu,
You have a great piece of property and a great view. I hope to fish the creek Thursday and/or Friday morning depending on schedule.
The 35 Whelen is a favorite of mine. I had "Redneck" here at the fire build me one on a Win 70 Stainless action with PacNor barrel and it is one of my favorite rifles. I hope to turn it loose on a bear this fall.

In 2007 I built these two 243s on 1903 Turk Mausers [and spare parts in my Mauser junk yard] for a 14 year old girl I heard about that wanted one. Her father was fighting in Iraq at the time. They came over, I met them, she picked the light weight one.

The machining detail on that thing is amazing. Hate to think what duplicating that would cost these days.
Lucky you. Don't let RevMike see that puppy!
