@rogers.270 What did the rifle without scope cost? no mention of price on website so I imagine a lot.

Not sure why its odd... if your referring to scope price... maybe $4600-$5000 - bought it months ago.

What does it weigh?

Dunno man - the rifle standard config with carbon barrel is 6.9, mines LA and geared up now. If really interested i could scale it as is

I have thought it should be closer to 6lb than 7lb. The action must weigh a bit?

Mine weighs 4.4 kg or 9lb 7oz with a 22” fluted steel barrel #4 contour with the 4-32 NX8 and covert suppressor.

The 18” 223 will weigh a bit less.

6.7lbs - had a ripper weekend slaying sika with it! Carried for miles - the light weight rifle is easy to carry

Greetings rogers.270.
That is a fancy piece of kit. I could not have even dreamed of something like that when I started treading the Kaweka's in the late 1960's. We thought a new rifle, any new rifle, even with a 4 power scope was top of the heap. How things have changed. Enjoy it.

Neither did i while dragging my carcus up the rangitata clutching an old weatherby .308 and a simmons 3-9. Funny thing is after a number of years i just sold all the stuff i had lying round and consolidated to what i actually used.... i recon most would be in a similar scenario
