[QUOTE="moxford, post: 2586435, member: 100620"] Just built one, 24" 30SM + EC brake, 7lb 14oz unloaded without scope/mount. 11 all up loaded (4 rnds). Debating dropping the alpha-glass optics for something smaller and lighter. It points well, and I've hunted with that weight for a few years already (Kifaru GB or strapped to the pack, both excellent vs a sling) but yeah, 11 lbs is pretty heavy to haul around. Scope/mount swap and remove the brake should put it right at about 9lbs, or a hair over. But 30SM kicks pretty good without a brake at 11lbs ... I'll have to try it at 8lbs just to see a baseline, lol. [/QUOTE]
