That is a really nice looking gun and very powerful. BUT.... It is 11 pounds without a scope. That is insane. I have a TX200 and that is 9.3 pounds and I can't shoot it offhand due to the weight. Im a pretty strong guy and I don't take it out in the woods to squirrel hunt because it is like carrying a cinder block. Your gun will be almost 12 lbs with a scope. If you are only gonna shoot off the bench or you look like Arnold then I apologize. But other than that, it got pretty good reviews. If you do get it, please do a review.
