Likely a paper thin barrel and a price tag that screams ...run Forest run! No thanks.

I always find it a little bit odd that people get so worked up over the weight of their gear when they're packing around a few more double-quarter-pounders-with-cheese than they should be and their "running" shoes are probably found under a half inch of dust in the closet.

A .308 needs a muzzle brake like a dump truck needs racing slicks.

Too light, imo.

A golf course is a willful and deliberate misuse of a perfectly good rifle range.

Agreed.

If the rifle is accurate, the weight would be great on a mountain hunt. I would be worried about a thin barrel "flicking" factory loads.
