I’m a boot guy, and found that any good boot comes weight. Asolo gtx are my go too, but salewa mountain trainer are not bad in weight. Both have shanks built in very little break in process.
7-08, 25-06, 6.5, my son started with full size butt stock it was alittle long but with a lot of practice he adapted. Had to move scope all the way back. We mainly shoot with biPods on our rifles so both hands were on the stock. Arizona shooting everything is long shots.
I have a hard time with my sons feet growing. So we buy cheapest boot that we can find, going on his third pair 14 years old. 4 th pair will be bought this month. Woooo
