Isn't that 2.24lbs? I always considered the trigger part of the action myself.

Yea it is actually 2.24lbs.His jab was continuation ofthe gun forum debate between the Weatherby Accumark and Remington XCR barrel weight. Stubble had the Weatherby Magnum weight at 50.5oz vs my weight of 35.9oz from Weatherbys web site. At any rate triggers andhardware ect weight are minimal and probably very even between the two guns. The point of my response is the action weight is no where near 50.5oz as he claimed.

Well, I sure don't want to be between this. But Scott I warn that real life measurements in this gun/reloading world usually if not 95% of the time usually is much worse than advertised.

Espiecally in the Bow world. If someone buys a bow cause of IBO speed, they are pretty silly. I suggest the same for guns.

I understand what you are saying about theadvertisingand agree. Especially the bow thing. One of the little known tricks for increasing FPS is toanchor the bow at 70lbs even though the let off weight is say 20lbs and letting it fly. Kind of dishonest really.

It certainly ispart of the action assembly as is the the magazine insert, the magazine followerand spring,the floorplate/trigger guard assembly and the action screws.You don't see them on the scale do you?

I think someone needs some anger management intervention.
Why are you getting angry?I guess that comes with being delusional and living in a dream world wherefull sizeweatherby mark V actions weigh less than 2 pounds.It sounds like you getyour load data from the same source as your action weights.:):)

Boy Stubble you are not going to like this!!!

Insert foot?
Whats not to like.I gave data for the complete action assemblies for both rifleswhich includes the trigger assembly,magazine insert,magazine follower and spring,floorplate/trigger assembly and action screws.You don't see them on the scale don't you?Or did you forget that the rifle needs them to function?:):):)

I think you may have missed the point of the link. The link shows the Weatherby Magnum on a digital scale with the weight of the action and bolt displayed at 35.9 ounces. Stubblejumper said the following about me in aquote:

"I guess that comes with being delusional and living in a dream world wherefull sizeweatherby mark V actions weigh less than 2 pounds.It sounds like you getyour load data from the same source as your action weights.:):) "

I thought it was kind of comical to make such a strong statement and have it backfire on him.
Who did it backfire on?Perhaps ona very delusional individualthat forgot about the trigger assembly,the magazine insert,the magazine follower and spring,the floorplate/trigger guard assembly and the action screws.Do you see them on the scale.Or doesn't your rifle need these parts?:):)
