44 ?

I had Lee Shaver put a #4 Green Mountain 30" long on a Pedersoli Sharps action in 45-70 and it weighs 12.32 pounds with a long range Baldwin Soule rear sight, the front sight is a globe with level and it has scope blocks on the barrel. It also has the heavy steel buttplate Pedersoli puts on thier Sharps silhouette models. I figure if I had to trim weight because someone weighed my rifle then I'd take the scope blocks off and also put my mid range Baldwin Soule on instead of the long range. I would think your highwall action would weigh less.
