    @Nick.m that's light 3.26 kg!
    I am assuming that you have milled the top of the receiver and fluted the barrel? I was thinking about this for mine
    Also what barrel length?
    Cheers G

    I'll probably go the bolt fluting route, but the barrel won't have any add on's. Done the lightweight bolt handle and need to do the shroud too. The buttpad will be the usual foam jandal, rubber pads are super heavy in comparison. Looking at eventually putting a sub 10 ounce scope on it too, haven't made up my mind there yet. The stock still needs pad, fill and swivels.
