How much does your LRH rifle weigh?

6.5x282 WIN
dressed 16.65 pounds
and for those who care. YES I do carry it in the field in an Elberstock pack.
 
Yup, I would like to know who is carrying their rig and how much it weighs?
Yes. An important distinction for sure. My Sendero has only been in my hands for 3 weeks, but it will *always* be a 'hunting' rig. Definitely not a BR rig, in the field or not. My desire was to build a rig that was in the 10-10.5 lbs range. I wanted a new rig that I could feel as comfortable carrying as I would shooting out to extreme (for me, 700+ yds) long distance.

Everything has a trade off, though. I pay my debt with my shoulder.

Both weigh roughly 10 lbs more at 5:00PM than they do @5:00AM. ;)
