[QUOTE="Edd, post: 1508020, member: 30592"] It's going to be tough but you can get close. Your barrel is going to weigh at least 40 ounces, you didn't say how long you wanted it. A McMillan edge fill stock might be as light as 30 ounces. A trigger, magazine, follower and spring, and an aluminum floor plate will be about 10 ounces. That's 5 pounds without an action. I've not weighed a 700 long action but a Model 7 will weigh about 24 ounces. I would expect a long 700 to weigh at least 2 pounds. [/QUOTE]
