Weight of Contender Carbine

[Tatume]

Does anybody have a T/C Contender carbine and a scale that would weigh the gun please? If so, please also tell me the chambering and barrel length.

Thank you.

Thanks McFred, Is that bedding compound in the photo?

[McFred]

Yes. The stock needs some finish work, so that's bare composite and some goo to fill the voids where the action mates.

I have a Carbine with walnuts stocks and the Super 16" 45/410 vent rib barrel. It weighs 4.5lbs.

Thanks Turtle, That's very encouraging in the search for an ultralight rifle.
