Should be under 8 bare rifle. The LRH stock, shorter barrel and fluting help a lot.

6.5 SAUM has been my favorite for a long time. Barrel life is awesome and I need all the help I can get as much as I like to pull the trigger

That's awesome. I can't wait to get mine from Dallas.
That's a Bute and we all know it will be a shooter.

Yes sir I've been killing critters with my 6.5 saum since before the prc was a twinkle in Hornady's eyes.6.5 SAUM has been my favorite for a long time. Barrel life is awesome and I need all the help I can get as much as I like to pull the trigger
Still a better case for the handloader
I couldn't agree more! I bought my first 6.5 saum in 2014. To me it's the best 6.5 case design, I now own two. It's my go to mule deer gun.

I to personally think the 6.5 SAUM is the best designed case out there as far as short action stuff goes!!

Tagging in for updated range reports and load data! Sweet gun! What scope did you end up deciding on?
I've never been a Vortex fan but I bought a new Razor LHT 4.5-22x50 with the XLR-2 MRAD reticle a few months back just because I got such a deal on it. I decided what the heck, I'll throw it on here and give it a try. I'm typically a Kahles K624i or MK5 HD fan but I have to admit this scope is impressive for the money. Very light too.......We'll see how it holds up!

Nice! Hopefully it performs well for you!!
I'm getting a serious itch to get a TT315M now that I see they only weigh 27 ounces! Have you tried one out yet? How does it compare to a PM II? Loved my PM II with the H2CMR reticle but it was heavy so only used for match shooting......My wife is going to kill me

I've never shot behind one at all. But there is one on here for $3150 right now. Very tempting!! @lancetkenyon has extensive experience with with the TT 315M and speaks very highly of them, especially as a hunting optic.I'm getting a serious itch to get a TT315M now that I see they only weigh 27 ounces!
