    Totally disagree with everything you said
    The T3 is a shitload lighter, and the Vanguard is the same weight
    Have a look at a Vanguard and a Howa side by side and you 'might' see something interesting.
    They are dumping the Vanguards out at $599 at the mo

    From my info
    Hogue Howa 7.5-7.75 lbs
    The T3 is a full lb + lighter than the Howa
    Vanguard 7.5-7.75
    Vanguard 2 7.25-7.5
    Rem 700 7.25-7.5
