[QUOTE="toddc, post: 734690, member: 4566"] A 10lb 300 gr shooting over 2800 fps? I sure s heck aint ok with that recoil. If you dont have to pack it then weight is always better. They move less. Period. I have 2 338s over the 30lb mark both of which Ive had a lot of newbs to GUNS not just LR fire 3-4 rounds to get used to it and then they kill a deer at 700+ on the 4th shot theyve ever shot with that gun. For a true static gun Id wanna be in the high teens to low 20s in weight. Either the savage lapua or even better build a savage on the edge that will shoot lights out with a REAL barrel for under 1k and then buy a NF. Keep in mind Im a recoil wuss and I hunt in the windiest area in NA and like the weight for no other reason than the wind manhandling the gun. [/QUOTE]
