Just ordered a Stocky's carbon fiber stock for my Savage. Pricey, but it's my Christmas gift to me. Will let y'all know how it fits and works (and weighs). Should get my rig down to 6 lbs. 6 oz. scoped
I think I’m going to bite the bullet and order the mdt hunt 26 with folding butt stock. It’s spendy but would make it the whole package.

Slick! Thanks for sharing. It’s gonna be hard not to if this becomes available in a long action.

We’re you able to seat the bullet further out then Sammi specs? Hoping to run 175s

I haven’t really tried. All my rifles that I hand load for are hunting rifles, and if I get loads with bullets I want for terminal performance, that are below .500 moa, I’m usually good. If I was chasing thousands of inches, I’d mess with seating depth. Most of my hunting loads I can usually get into the .300-.500 moa range while seating .030” off the lands.

I try to find a really effective bullet weight range for a caliber and stay close to that. My 6.5 range is 130-147, my .270 range is 130-150, my 7mm range is 160-168, and my .30 range is 165-180. You certainly can go outside of this, but it’s what I do to keep life simple.

I am currently contemplating on buying one but seems like the listed weights are not accurate

I love my Savage 111 in 30-06. It's killed a pile of deer. Touching bullets at 100 yards with off shelf ammo. That's next level taking 2 lbs off that platform!

With a leupold vx5 hd 3x15 the rifle is 7.7 lbs. No ammo in the mag.
Is that 7 pounds 7oz or 7.7lbs (7lbs 11oz). From my quick calculations of the the vx5 listed weight and the ultralite's listed weight, it should come in a 7lb and 7oz although that's not factoring in rings which could be 3-4 oz
