Let's not run around in passive aggressive circles again
Too late.
Passive aggresive? Is that a science that forces a desired conclusion?
You'd have to understand science, no? "blah blah blah" - now that's real science. I'm convinced now.

I want to build a light rifle for hunting. I have target rifles; this won't be that.
I'm thinking Manners EH3, Axiom/Tempest/Nucleus, Timney or Triggertech, likely with an ADL bottom vs an APA DBM setup, and a 24" tube.
My goal is sub-7-lbs (without optic).
I'll hunt suppressed, so shorter provides maneuverability and lighter weight. Balancing that with velocity loss if I go too short (<22"?).
You came back in here trying to stir up **** to stir it up.
This thread already got ruined once by the nonsense and when i asked for us to not play the game again you replied with "too late" like an 8 year old.
If you don't see how your latest posts are negative and created around a lack of accomplishing anything useful then we won't meet
I'm glad you picked up on my lack of passiveness, it was purposeful.
These posts are meant to provoke. It worked, it's annoying as hell.

Sounds like a fun rifle, what caliber are you planning? Seems the weight difference dies off quiet a bit as you shorten them. I believe Joel Russo posted a thread of an ultralightweight build pretty recently on an axiom.

5.3 lbs w/o scope!
I love my proof Barrels and they absolutely hammer. I did not use them for heat dissipation at all. I used them because I could get the stiffness of a heavier barrel without the weight and....they look badass. My latest build is a 7saum on a stiller predator LA, manners mcs-t with spacers for 14.5" LOP, apa DBM, 26" Proof sendero with four port best brake. Rifle weighs 8.0 lbs on the nuts. Would have had to get real skinny on an all steel barrel to achieve this weight and wouldent have looked nearly as cool!
So I think I'm weird... I must be in the minority that doesn't like the looks as much. But I'm having a hard time refuting an argument based on weight and stiffness.
And yours looks gorgeous, just for clarity's sake, carbon barrel and all. It just... works.
