Tikka T3 Superlight 243win originally sold by Bass Pro (BP called theirs ' light ' rather than 'lite'). Black barrel and receiver. Weight incl magazine but no scope mounts or sling = 6 lb, 0.7 oz.. I think the T3X models are a little heavier.
This was disappointing, since the gun has a big label that says "5.8 #". So, it was 3.9 oz heavier than I expected. Almost a quarter pound.
It was supposed to be 4 oz lighter than my Walmart/Winchester, exactly where I wanted to be. Instead it's heavier. Pffft. I did some research on weight reductions and it's not promising.
Then I saw a used Kimber Montana in 243...
