Nemesis Arms .308 Windrunner

My Dad pointed this rifle out from an ad in a recent issue of an LE magazine he gets: The Nemesis Arms Windrunner.  It’s about as “bare bones” in appearance as you can get, and appears to be a .308 AR lower mated up to a bolt action upper with a skeleton style stock kit.  I am 100% in favor of this gun for two reasons: 1) I like cool looking guns, and 2) I like modular rifle platforms.

    What’s the weight?

    The problem with “sniper rifles” today is that they need to be wheeled about instead of carried.

    I always like it in class when we have to hold on a target and you can hear the grunting and straining from the 117 pound “rifles” that guys bring.

    BTW, where are the sling posts for that thing?

    The windrunner is 11 lbs(!).

    But I just don’t get WTF weighs so much on this thing – I mean it is pretty bare bones and skeletonized… It’s only 3 lbs lighter than an m40.

    I mean, Tikka can build a .308 that weights ~8 lbs…

    Eleven pounds?

    I like the look of it, but jeez, it looks like it weighs around 6-7 lbs.

    Gotta carry an oven mitt with it to avoid burns.

    Want one anyway!
