Re: AICS w/Kreiger #10MTU
Kreiger .. MTU..
Watch out... you'll end up with a PIG of a rifle.. mine is 17+ lbs..
If your going to be walking it anywhere I'd seriously consider the standard Palma or similar to a AIAW contour with the flutes.. you'd save something over 2lbs I think..
No question of quality with a Kreiger..

Its an arguable point. Shoot it first unbedded then decide, measurable gains may not be had, but the piece of mind may be worth it to you (esp with a big ass barrel, I'd do a barrel pad and bed the action). KMW beds them, R&D doesn't, I do, some don't.......you get the picture.
