Guessing 10-11# maybe?My 527 Varmint with SWFA SS10 x 42 Scope, 9" to 13" Harris Bipod, And Leather sling comes in at a couple of ounces under 12 pounds. Not a rifle to carry around in the bush for certain, but that was not my intentions. The MTR must weigh more due to the heavier stock and barrel , the Varmint barrel is 0.740 at the muzzle.
