It's as close as I can gauge. I stepped on the bathroom scale without the rifle, then picked it up. As close as I could read the dial, it increased about 19 pounds. That weight reflects the bi-pod, sling, everything but ammo. Regardless the precise pounds weight, it's a nice, heavy rifle. With my fused neck, heavier is better. :)

The first 10 rounds after zeroing the scope were about 1MOA. That was with SSA 168gn SMKs IIRC. Most of my development loads have come in right around the 1 MOA mark for 5-shot groups. Clean-up, on the infrequent occasions that I run a patch down the barrel, has been really quick. Patch with Hoppe's Bore Gel, let it sit for a few minutes and 3-5 patches later they come out almost clean.

Also bear in mind that this is an off-the-shelf ER Shaw pre-fit from Midway that sells for $139. Additionally of the 3 Accutrigger rifles that I own, this one has by far the worst trigger. The trigger on my precision .243 (sorry no pics right now) is night and day better and it also has a Walmart package gun pedigree.
 
@Taliv
You said the one rifle is on its third barrel. What was the round life that you have experanced with those barrels?
 
accuracy dropped off pretty bad after 1500 rnds at 3047 fps on the first bbl, but i put about 1800 on it. second bbl got 2400 or 2500 rnds through it, but i reduced the powder and velocity to 2980ish (don't recall velocity exactly, but i'm counting rounds these days by stacking empty 100ct primer boxes on my desk... one stack for each bbl. heh. i don't keep data books anymore.) i'm at least 700 into the 3rd bbl and it's shooting really well right now. best of the 3 so far. interestingly, i special ordered the 260AI reamer with a specific neck size, and my smith said he chambered one other guy's gun with it, so this reamer is on it's 4th bbl.
 
These are some beautiful rifles......

Looking at those bipods (After looking at prices on Sinclair) made me realize.......

I need to make Bi-pods!

And I have the equipment and know how to boot! :D

Need a Custom Bi-pod?
 
I did it backwards....jumped right to the big gun.

HS Precision 338 LM left handed.

Next is a short action in 6.5 something or other.
 
My poor man's long range rifle. Savage LRP in .260 Rem, Warne 20 MOA base, Burris extreme tactical rings, and a Bushnell 3200 elite 10x40 mil/mil. I actually think it is a great rifle and a great deal.

Good 2"400 yard rifle with some same lot number factory ammo. Half that with handloads. Never intended to leave this scope on just short of money when rifle was built . Still works great 15 years later. Simmons atec 3.8-14 scope from first year productions. Pod is for picture only.
