    Personally think exposed carbon weave is feckin ugly, you can save a lot of weight by having the right action, barrel contour and a good quality fiberglass stock.

    Seems like the above rifle is put together just for the 'carbon fetishists'.

    My Rem M7 SS KS (Mcm stock) 7mm08 weights nothing, TT Special trigger, holds 5+1 rounds, DPT can (no SS baffle) 20MOA rail on with Leupold Mk4 3.5-10x40.

    Whole setup cost just over £1.6k to put together (rifle was £400, a real steal but needed to buy a donor M7 to replace the bolt... which thankfully only cost £125!) mostly due to the rail and trigger being a bitch to source (UK importers are idiots who think the M7 and 700 are the same thing )

    Might have gotten super lucky with the 2nd hand rifle coming with such a nice stock, but a little bit of 2nd hand searching will get you a much nicer rifle than buying something new from a dealer.
