Very nice rifles posted.
I'll have a couple to post in the next few months. McEdge stocked M70 SS classic in 7RM, should tip the scales at 7lbs 13 oz give or take with 3-9 VX II on board.
I also just bought a Ruger SS UL, topped with a 2-7 Leupie should come in at 7 lbs, 3-4oz or so.
Although not true ultralights, they meet my needs well.

I'm thinking you're a little closer to 9 pounds...not including the bipod.

The S-M Ultra Light comes in the .308 case short cartridges, the one pictured was a .243 Win IIRC. The scope mounts were developed by S-M, I first saw them on the Steyr Scout. Talley has a nice replacement. jim

It's a nice looking rifle, but I'd get a more stealthy scope mount myself.
