Hunting rifle weight

I’m having a hybrid hunting/long range .308 bolt action Remington 709 clone rifle being built. I was adding up the weight on this rifle to be around 158.04 ounces which is around 9.9 pounds? Here is an itemized list of parts and about what each weighs according to the manufacturers specs:

Triggertech 2.24 oz
Manners stock 31.2 oz (1.95 pounds)
Kauger action 28 oz
Proof barrel 47oz (3 pounds)
Hunter Dbm 2.8 oz
Hawkins mag 2.6 oz
Brake 4.8 oz
Spuhr one piece rings 9.4 oz
Mark 5,5-25x56 scope 30 oz

Does 9.9 pounds sound okay, or too much, for a hunting rifle? I am also having the rifle glass bedded. How much more weight will that add? Is there any way to save anymore weight on this that I’m not thinking of? I had thought about getting a lighter ring set but I would only be saving 4 ounces for the Hawkins rings or seekins rings, and I thought about getting a mark 5hd in the 3-18x44 magnification but that would only save me about 4 ounces.

Just thinking all this through. This is still lighter than the rifle I had which was 12.5 pounds. I’d appreciate any thoughts you had on this.

SOLD Remington 700 lh 16in barrel

I received this gun in partial trade for my kayak. Don't need it.

It's a AH barrel code for 1987. B serial # prefix. Remington changed to C prefix in 11/87.
A good guess is youth synthetic model with a 16 in barrel left hand 308.
Original pre jlok with an walker trigger.
i tried calling Remington to confirm barrel length. No luck. Not helpful at all.
Local lgs gunsmith looked at it and said barrel looks unmolested not refinished and crown looks original.
Bolt face looks little used. I fired 3 rounds for function.
$500 + shipping

High School Football Coach Fired for Praying at Games Given $2 Million Settlement


Joe Kennedy




Joe Kennedy, the high school football coach fired for praying at games, has reached a $2 million settlement with the school board and will be reinstated as a coach.
The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Kennedy’s favor in August 2022, with the justice’s ruling that the First Amendment protected his right to pray on the field. A court later ruled in October 2022 that the Bremerton School District in Washington State must hire him back by March 2023. In a statement on its website dated March 6, Bremerton High School said that he would be an assistant coach for the 2023 season.
“Mr. Kennedy will be an assistant football coach for Bremerton High School for the 2023 season. Mr. Kennedy has completed human resources paperwork and we are awaiting the results of his fingerprinting and background check. Mr. Kennedy will need to complete all training required by WIAA,” it said.
The district also said it reached an agreement on Kennedy’s attorney fees for $1,775,000, which the school board must approve.
“As with any other assistant coach, Mr. Kennedy will be included in coaching staff communication and meetings, spring football practice, and other off-season football activities,” the district said.
“We are thrilled that Bremerton and Coach Kennedy are back together and we hope they go undefeated,” Hiram Sasser, executive general counsel at First Liberty Institute, a legal organization representing Kennedy, told the Seattle Times.
Kennedy began praying on the 50-yard line alone at the end of games until several students started joining him, which morphed into him giving short inspirational talks in which he cited God and religion. When the school district learned of this practice, they asked him to stop and eventually fired him in 2015 when he refused to comply.
As Breitbart News profiled at the time, Sports Illustrated even waded into the debate in an article by Greg Bishop bashing the Supreme Court case, arguing that Kennedy’s win in court could be an “erosion” of American democracy.
“This Sports Illustrated article is little else but a long smear against Christians, conservatives, and white people in general, and coach Kennedy in particular, and on a vicious personal level,” Breitbart News noted.

California Handgun Law Ruled Unconstitutional

SOLD STI Limited Edition 9mm 2011 Marauder final price drop

Looking to thin out the heard a little and this one gets no love since I got the staccato p. Although this is a much better pistol than the p I like the smaller size of the P.
I bought this new and had some feeding issues right off the bat, STI sent me a 1lb heavier recoil spring that fixed the problem. It probably has somewhere in the neighborhood of 1000-1500 rounds down the tube and since the new spring has been flawless. You will get the original packaging, original recoil spring along with a 2lb heavier spring, and 2 mags. Other than a few cosmetic blems in the coating there are no scratches or deep gouges in the material.
$2500 shipped
Last price drop to $2200 firm

now the fungus is going to get us.....

so i quit watching the news about 2 1/2 years ago. every once in a while i walk into the room someone has the bullshit on. so the story i walked in on today was about how a fungus is adapting (because of global warming-hahaha) and spreading and killing people. now the "subject matter expert" fucked up and stumbled into the truth and said "some of the measures to prevent covid helped it become more common."

so basically, facemasks. we told you fucks. NO REFUNDS.
