This M700 in -06 had a Leupold 2-7 Ultralight and Weaver mounts and rings. In a Brown Precision stock and no metal work it came in at 7lbs 2 oz. It kicked way less than the post 64 M70 it replaced (which weighed 2 lbs more) with the same load of 180's because the stock was fit to me.

Forgot to mention I converted it to a BDL in the process.

I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all.
