ctracingraptor Report post Posted August 1, 2016 How much does the RUM weigh with that Proof barrel? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duckhunter175 Report post Posted August 1, 2016 I owe you an answer on that. I believe the entire set up (minus bipod), but with Mk4 base and rings will be under 9lbs unloaded. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WampusCat Report post Posted August 1, 2016 Looks good. I'll be interested in your thoughts on that brake. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duckhunter175 Report post Posted August 1, 2016 I totaled the advertised weights of all components and got 9.5lbs... that isn't considering mill work on the receiver to open up for the extended box or opening up the stock for that barrel contour. I will get it onto a good scale this week. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duckhunter175 Report post Posted August 8, 2016 9.25lbs on the scale, unloaded. 1.5" @ 200m with HSM ammo (180 HVLD) off bipod Muzzle blast is significant but the brake does it's job and the felt recoil is not bad at all!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
