Max weight rifle with a Kifaru gun bearer

[coloradoan]

Thinking about trying a universal Kifaru gun bearer setup on my Seek Outside pack. Seems like the gun bearer is obviously going to be more comfortable with a lightweight rifle. Those of you with a lot of experience with the gun bearer - have you found that there's a certain weight at which the gun bearer is no longer a comfortable setup?

My rifle weighs 9.1 pounds and it is comfortable.

I don't have any overly heavy rifles, even my muzzleloader is fine. I do like shorter barrels so they don't stick up above my head and catch on brush.

Mine carries my 10 lb 28 Nosler very easily, hardly noticable vs a shoulder strap. No doubt it would work with something quite a bit heavier than that.
