A lot! Sendero 7mm RUM with 4-14 50mm scope. Guessing around 12 lbs. Lost weight this summer so I guess I can carry a heavy rifle since I'm not so heavy myself.

well my sendero .300 rummy is heavy as all get out. The bare rifle is 8.5 lbs. From what i hear, when my sendero is all outfitted with a scope and bipod it'll be close to 13 lbs.
My Nef 7mm-08 handi rifle, scoped and bipod is somewhere in the ballpark of 10 lbs.

Hmm... I've got a .22rimfire rifle that's just near 14 pounds.
My 03-A3 with scope is more than 9 1/2 pounds. My Ruger77 with scope is just around 8 and my lever guns are less than 7 when loaded. My son's Rossi 243, (might be for sale soon) is right around 5 and my sons Marlin XL7 in .270win with scope is sweet to carry at a little more than 6 1/2 pounds loaded.
