So, I am trying to blueprint a new rifle I think I want to have built, and I have done some searching, and I'm trying to get a 'feel' for the weight and balance of a Lilja #2 @ 26" on a 700 long action.
...or #3 fluted?
Is that similar to a Remington sporter weight, or magnum contour?
I have a donor 700 30-06 ADL action, and I've been wanting a 22-6mm (224 TTH) 8-twist 3-groove at 26" to max out the speed.
It was gonna be used as a walking crow, coyote and groundhog rifle. I am not big on barrel weight out front, I just want something balanced between the hands, 'sporter' heavy but not ultralight or Sendero sized. Maybe 7.5-8# with the scope?
