I read you guys writing about shaving a couple of ounces here and there and I kinda scratch my head most of the time...
There's been a lot of good REASONS we like LIGHT!
Have you ever HUNTED a light rifle?
My FAVORITE HUNTING rifle is a Tikka T3 Lite SS 270 W. Gun, 4-12X40 AO scope, loaded + sling = 7 1/4 lbs.
I'm NOT talking a few ozs here & there; but 1 1/2 - 3 POUNDS lighter.
Don't go light IF you like heavy!
