I have had a LWH in a 260 Rem for a little over a year now and the more I use it the more I like it. When I first got it I put a big scope on it, then I soon realized I was not putting this rifle together for its intended purpose. I have it setup now with everything "light". Cheapo Weaver two piece mount, cheapo old Savage vertical split rings, and a Leupold scope ( ultralight vx ll 3-9x33 w/LR reticle) 8.8 ozs. Rifle and scope weighs just over 6 lbs. Kinda like carrying a 10/22.
