[quote=pete53]if your in-shape maybe a heavier rifle is no big deal and your a bigger stronger man ? if your a smaller man maybe you need a smaller rifle ? not everyone is the same ,myself i like a heavier rifle ,heavy rifles shoot better for me but i am 6 ft. 2 inch and 240 lbs., i climbed poles and shoveled dirt for a living for 35 years plus i was a farm kid . none us are the same everyone has a weight they can handle in a rifle ???
