Not sure of the weight of the others, but my M70 Featherweight is light. I pulled the stock off the other day and it weighed 26 oz w/ butt pad and sling studs- hard to find a synthetic stock much under that (and lots and lots over that!). Mine is a .06 w/ a 22" barrel and weighs 7 lbs even with a Leupold 6X scope and Tally rings.

I'm having the bolt fluted and ordered PTG bottom metal to shave a few more ounces

Does it have to be a 308? I only ask because I have a like new Savage Lady Hunter in 6.5 Creedmoor I'm trying to sell for a family member.

Trying to find a Weatherby Vanguard Camilla but man those seem to be hard to come by.

Well after starting the search and wanting to go wood and classy she ended up with a Cristensen Arms Ridgeline. :)
