My 338 weighs about 23 lbs, when I get a suppressor, 25ish.
That's mostly thanks to a 32" truck axle for a barrel.

R700 action
24" Rock Creek #7
Badger M4 Bottom metal
Badger Rings and 30MOA base
McM A5 stock (don't know the fill, weighs about 4 lbs)
Nightforce 8-32 BR
Harris 6-9 swivel bipod
Weighs in at just over 16lbs empty. That #7 contour barrel is like a truck axle out there, and all the Badger steel doesn't make it svelte either.

Just lightened up my rig by trading out the Horus Vision Falcon for a Leupold Mark 4 4-14x50mm.
28" Xtreme Precision Armaments Carbon Fiber wrapped Sendero contour barrel (XPA bought the patents from Mike D., former owner of ABS carbon fiber barrels-no longer in business-).
Xtreme Precision Armaments / Lone Wolf Rifle stocks model XT Tactical carbon fiber / kevlar rifle stock
Barnard SM repeater action.
Without the stock pack full of ammo and the bipod I am just at <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-size: 14pt">10 pounds</span></span></span>. I'll get a rock solid weight measurement in the next few days. </div></div>
Ranger1183,
How do you like the carbon wrapped barrel? I am thinking of putting together a rifle for offhand shooting/practice with a long CF barrel. I would suspect that it must help with both instinctive and offhand shooting.

Re: Tactical Rifle Weight? How heavy is your rig?
The scope is an MST-100 from USO. When I ordered the scope I asked Becky to add the sun shade and the Anti reflection device. They all fit together and work great. If you contact USO or look at the accessories for the MST-100 you will find them. Hope this helps.

Re: Tactical Rifle Weight? How heavy is your rig?
I have the same scope but i still call it a Unertl
. I just checked USO's site $40, a bit steep but i guess there is no other choice.
Thanks

Re: Tactical Rifle Weight? How heavy is your rig?
No problem. When you spend that much money for optics whats an extra $40.00 and you only need to buy it once. The ARD is nice too.

Your right. I tried jerry rigging shades from other scopes to no avail. I will admit i am a cheap bastard.

Re: Tactical Rifle Weight? How heavy is your rig?
Nothing wrong with being frugal. You just want to make sure your money is well spent. I too have played with altering things to see if I could make something to work but in the end I spent the money.

Re: Tactical Rifle Weight? How heavy is your rig?
My old issue M107 weighed about a million pounds (35 lbs actually loaded with 8 rds). I hauled that thing a lot more places than I should have.
I think a good .30 caliber rifle should weigh no less than 11 lbs and no more than 18 for tactical applications. Eighteen is pushing it it. I hate the super light hunting rifles they come out with. If you can't carry an 11 lbs rifle then you need to hit the gym.

Re: Tactical Rifle Weight? How heavy is your rig?
My rifle weighs 14.3 lbs:
Blue-printed Rem. 700 action
Stock Rem. trigger reworked to 2.5 lbs by smith
Bartlein 25" AMU profile 5R barrel in .308
McMillan A5 stock
Badger Ord. bottom metal/scope base/rings/bolt knob
Harris 9-13 bipod
I find that a lot of weight is tied up in high-end scopes. They're HEAVY.
