    Those numbers do not sound correct at all. 700g with the only changes being alloy bottom metal, alloy mag bottom and barrel contour / fluting / length.

    100 - 200g would be more like it.

    Given the quality of the hunting fishing website..... in hindsight id say you are correct.

    If you want to save some weight on the 85, replace the 875g stock! (85 S Finnlight not soft touch)
