There isn’t really a whole lot of lightweight scopes with turrets and 18x magnification. I really like lightweight Hunting rifles, but this one is a lightweight long range Hunting rifle. I could get it sub 8lbs if I throw a Swarovski Z3 or Leupold VX3i on there, but the extra weight of the X5i is worth it on this rig.

Im looking forward to seeing some 4 or 5 inch groups on 1km targets. Thats the gun that can do it!
