Ok, my ruger rar chassis arrived today. It was 1 lb 14.5 oz with hardware. My action has weaver low rings at 2.5 oz and leupold fxII 6x36 (9.5 oz) and i've got a 3 slot magpul m-lok rail and a streamlight tlr-8 (rail with light/laser is 3.0 oz combined) and 1.0 oz in some ergo m-lok rail covers (2-4 hole and 1-2 hole) and entire scoped rifle without ammo or sling is exactly 8 lb 8 oz (8.5 lbs). It has magpul moe-k grip (trigger reach is great) and scope/eye alignment off the magpul ctr butt stock on a carbine length buffer tube/castle nut is also ideal for weaver low rings. LOP adjusts from 11.5-14.5" and OAL from 33.75-36.75".
10 rounds of ammo and a sling will bring it up to 9 lbs all in give or take an oz or so depending on sling (6.5 oz for 10 rounds) and recoil energy will be 6.1 ft/lbs with hornady black ammo.
I would build this again, in fact i'm going to do two more, one each for my two boys. Quite happy with this set up now.
Shot two more coyotes with it before chassis two days ago bringing it to 3 coyotes, plus a sheep and a whitetail buck so the talley up to five with it now. Straight shooter, been deadly one shot on all so far. Longest coyote 300, the sheep 170, deer 198. Great little do all rig that can double down for defense as well.
