    The Montana would be considerably lighter i'd say.

    My Model 7 7mm SAUM with factory heavy 22" barrel (but fluted) in a Stug stock weighs just shy of 3.1kg with a big 4-16x50 target turret scope on it.

    Bloody hell, assume you are running a brake or supressor?

    Recoil from prone must be harsh...

    Yes, it's fair to say recoil without a muzzle device of any sort is stiff. 162 Amax doing 3,070 fps. I carry a DPT Magnum suppressor with 6 baffles in my pack and that gets fitted before taking a long/prone shot, with that on its a pussy really.

    We all know we carry rifles far more than we shoot them.
