I had a Savage package gun, that I swapped out for one of their excremental plastic stocks, and that hideous thing shot like it had eyes. It only weighed about 6.5 pounds, even with the Weaver V-9 I had on it (I threw away the scope it came with, a Simmons). It shot really well and carried really well, too. I used 100gr. NPTs, which are plenty for any whitetail I want to shoot. Cram some 4350 in a case, put in a 100 Nosler, and go kill stuff. It had a 22" barrel, but that didn't matter anyway.
I finally got tired of looking at the hideous thing and sold it or traded it off. I kinda miss it, though, it was light, accurate, and easy to carry. It actually carried better than the Marlin 336SC I have now (as a second rifle to my M70 .270). Yep, should have kept it.
