    So, while waiting on a TL3 action, this is what I'm thinking: 6.5 creed

    TL3 Action = 2lbs
    Razor AMG = 1.8 lbs
    Spuhr = 0.5 lbs
    KRG Bravo = 2.9 lbs
    Proof barrel 2.5 lbs

    That's 9.7 lbs before bipod and ammo (eventually a can). So, 12 lbs or less. Feel free to correct my weights/math if you see something I got wrong, or missed.

    I will take it out hunting from time to time, and its no issue for me to have a regular barrel spun and a carbon barrel on hand for weight reduction when needed. I can also swing a Razor Gen II for added weight, but I prefer the EBR-7 reticle of the AMG.

    Obviously, in a perfect world, I could use a single configuration for both, but I know that may not be the best idea.

    So, my question is........what will I lose in PRS and sniper challenges with less weight? Is it enough to need to use a heavier barrel/optic to push into the 15lb range?


    Thanks.

    Swap the KRG for a MPA hybrid chassis(2.9lbs) with the weight system(add 4.5lbs) and it’s a perfect crossover.
