Hello Forum,

Pretty specific question here for those running either a Sako Finnlight in .308 or a Sako Carbonlight in .308. What is the measured weight for your bare rifle? A forum search here reveals about an 8 oz difference between the finnlight and the carbonlight but I'm hoping for "more data" as I make my decision. Granted weight will not be the only consideration.

Thank you!

You are a lucky guy as I have kept this data in a spreadsheet.
I've owned both and these are based off my scale.

I prefer the Carbonlight stock. It’s now on a 6.5 creed Finnlight (stock swap).
308 is gone
