maltbuck Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I am thinking of having my Sako 75 30-06 rebarreled with a Lothar Walthar 1450 Super Magnum Sporter 24" stainless barrel, but I cannot find any specification with regard to weight. The barrel would more than likely be unfluted. Can anyone help please? Regards MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejg223 Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I had my sako 308 rebarreled 22" 1450 super magnum, it is a very good compromise between weight and precision. I think it's "just right" Rather save weight on the stock than on the barrel. My friend had a 270wsm howa done with this barrel size, but fluted. Matched with a light stock it's almost lighter than an average standard sporter rifle. edi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronin Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 This looks similar to a No6 sporter contour - my guess before chambering would be 4.5 lbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejg223 Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 MB, according to a little program I have (stolen from Lilja, www.riflebarrels.com) a 26" No. 5 would be 3.8lb (30 cal) If you can't find the progr. PM your e-mail and I can send it to you. edi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
