When I bought mine they were not even twice what a Hardy was, actually my first one was only a couple of hundred dollars more than a Hardy at the time as someone had used it as a demo.
Maybe they have gone up in price and Hardies down? I'm guessing you probably shoot from a bipod? If your are trying to shoot unsupported that extra weight saving not on end of barrel I find a massive difference to being able to hold steady.
