Thanks!


Fine rifles for the money$, although a tad rough.....

Not a lightweight rifle!, but that is personal preference.....

My 9.3 shot pretty well!

I would not buy another due to the weight but like I said. Personal preference wink


Action weight is just under the 3lb mark, so they are about half a pound heavier than a M700. They are heavier than most more modern actions but lighter than a pre-64 M70 or a Weatherby Mark V. In the (admittedly pretty crappy) polymer stock, they are only around the 6.5lb mark. The "mini-mauser"/M85 is around the 6lb mark in walnut.
