Well finally have the rifle in my hands and weighed it, 6.4lbs with Leupold rings and bases that are on it. So some Talley lightweights and a 2-7X33 will make this rifle a nice carry rig. Its clean and feels good in the hands. I'm happy with it so far.


JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H
