It weighs 8lbs exactly, as pictured. So knock 20oz off that for the scope. Handling is perfect, with a little weight forward for stability. Balance point is halfway between the front action screw and recoil lug....

Break in and range report will be coming this weekend but I won't be able to stretch it out until I get back down to the farm in about a month.

Thanks I’m doing a similar one in 22-250. My target weight is 7 pounds but I’ll use a model seven action, an edge fill stock and a lighter scope so my weight should be achievable

I bet yours is an absolutely hammer and easy to shoot. Love it
