Weights

 I was digging through the gun safe yesterday and started wondering about gun weights, so I got out the digital scale to put some numbers to my favorites.

My favorite competition gun is a Cimarron Model P.  According to the scale, it comes in at just a hair under 2 lbs, 4 oz.


Next up was my old Saage 110 in .30-06.  It's 8 lbs, 4 oz.  Not bad for a full-sized rifle with scope. This one is my go-to deer rifle.  It has accounted for several pounds of venison.


So, then I took out the Ruger 10/22 with the Boyds stock. Nearly 7 lbs, 7 oz.  That Boyds stock added a few ounces to the little rifle, but I feel like the upgrade was worth it.


Then, I saw an old safe queen that hadn't seen daylight in a while.  My old Winchester 94.  It's light and handy and sure needs to be taken to the range.  One ounce over 6 pounds.


Yeah, I need to get that old gal out to the range. Maybe we will do that next week.
