500grainsThat gun is waaaaaaaaay too light. I would rather haul around 15 or 18 pounds than need to wear a neck brace after shooting an 11 pound gun.
Why would someone build a beautiful rifle in 2000 and sell it as new in 2001?
Because it kicks too much.

NickuduThanks Ed. I like it very much. Fully loaded, the weight may be O.K.
One could always add weight to suit.
Welcome! ... Nick

AtkinsonI can handle the weight I suppose, but I didn't like the grain layout..notice the magazine area. It is imparative that the grain lay stright and forward on big bores, there is more to makeing a big bore than whittling....
