I actually sympathize with op there. I run my stocks all the way in. I greatly prefer how the rifle balances. I'd much rather have the weight closer in, rather than further out, fatiguing my arms faster. I don't really shoot NTCH either. The heel of stock goes into my pec more than my arm/shoulder. |

NTCH was never for me (watch some of Frank Proctor's videos...or Steve Fisher) but if it works...what can I say. I did, then I didn't, now I do again. It at least gives you a repeatable place for your face, which does help shooting. Consistency. I didn't watch the videos you talked about but I know I see a lot of "Operators" run them out all the way and I think that helps with extending their left arm further down the rail. Especially with a carbine. And have the more straighter left arm thing going on. Which is good for some people too. And I'm sure there are other good reasons. But whatever works for you. And that may change from time to time. It gets irritating when people act like there is only ONE way of doing something. Because it's simply not true. You think every dude that was shown to chicken wing back in the old days died because there might have been a better way of doing things? I doubt it. I'm sure some rocked the technique just fine. Etc etc. This technique, that technique. What matters is can you hit your target when you need to. |

What does an "average" Recce usually weigh? I'm trying to decide if I am getting too heavy or not.
Once I added bipod, scope mount, scope, I think I am at like 9.5lbs. But this is with a 16" LW barrel. Been thinking about getting a Larue Stealth 16", which would add another like 12 or 13 ounces. That would be well over 10lbs before adding any weapon light. Thoughts? |

Vltor emod stock I have no bipod, and if you're optic is a pig, it can certainly push the ounces. |

I'll weigh it when I get home, but withe the suppressor and bipod it's up there.

I'm weighing my stuff now to see where I am at since I couldn't remember exactly. Will post soon. Edit: Oh also that doesn't seem terrible weight for having a fully loaded 30 round magazine (15 oz right there!) |

Weights of my rifle listed below:
Vortex Viper PST 2.5-10x32 in Larue SPR-E : 1lb 11.375oz Bipod : 12.125oz Rifle (no magazine) : 6lb 14.375oz All rifle components: Mega Billet Upper/Lower, 12" DD Lite Rail III, 16" DD LW CHF barrel, DD Flash Hider, DD M16 BCG, mil spec buffer tube, H buffer, Vltor Emod Stock, Magpul MOE Grip, Geissele SD-C, AXTS Raptor, AXTS Talon Safety, Larue Index clips and 2 DD rail covers Total weight (all added together) : 9lb 5.875oz I guess this isn't a bad weight, it wasn't built as being a lightweight rifle (hence the billet receivers), but not exactly built to be a pig either. It's mainly just the scope and mount that adds a significant amount. |

Thanks! Ended up with a H59. Got a decent price, not a smoking deal. I was too anxious to get one to search for a long time. So far I love it, but I haven't gotten to stretch it out passed 200 yet. Now the debate is when to cerakote it. |
