    True , but for a metal chassis and stiffness and exotic barrel significantly lighter than a traditional alloy chassis and heavy barrel I would have thought .
    And I'm a sucker for exotic materials....

    heavy is great until you have to lug the bloody thing up hill .....
    frighteningly my 338 is probably actually lighter than the MGlite in the video

    I rekon Bergara would be a great option for a semi custom. Would love an HMR restocked in something like a manners or hi tek

    It has some nice features but I wouldn’t like to handle the magnesium chassis bare handed on a winter tahr trip. Normal hunting will be ok.
