MPA Ultralight vs XLR Element magnesium

[Ballen]

Looking to start building a 22CM for night hunting. Trying to decide between the Ultralight MPA and magnesium Xlr Element. Anyone have pros and cons other than ½ pound heavier MPA? I do like the looks of the MPA better. With the MPA I should still be a pound lighter with the components I've chosen compared to current rig.

Lighter gun on top of the tripod (more stable) would be the major advantage - otherwise the other beneficial features look to be the same.

I use an element for night hunting - built in arca rail, folding stock, adjustable buttstock, and pistol grip are all the key features I like.

I use a regular Element also.
