A rifle

[Kurt]

I just don't like.
It's one heck of a fine shooter but it's just to heavy for my liking.
I build this rifle as a 25# Tollofson and I had Shiloh use my 17 twist .44 Kreiger barrel because they did not want to change the gears or didn't have a 17 twist button. The barrel is 35" long and 1.3 unturned diameter unfinished because I felt it would keep it cooler than a blued barrel when the sun hits it.
I just don't shoot this rifle for the reason mentioned above.
I been thinking turning the barrel down to get it at 12#. Have any of you had one turned down a heavy barrel and have you seen any changes in accuracy doing this with the same barrel just turned down and shortened 5" ?
