I ended up finding a VX1 2-7x33 for sale; which is now on it’s way to me, that I will try out on the 308. That should drop the weight to around 5lbs1oz scoped. I’ll weigh and post back later once it’s mounted.

In the mean time I removed the 3-10x42 swaro from the 308 and mounted it on a 7-08 Adirondack that sits in a hunter stock.
-cerkoated barrel
-rubber removed from stock and spray foam filled
-rear stud threads ground down
-a little action molestation from the original owner, I’m assuming he used a dremel???
-talleys
-titanium bolt handle

Overall weight is 5lbs11.5ozs This should make a nice little grab and go truck gun.
