Re: Help picking smallbore for small shooter

My KK500 with 690mm barrel, next to KK500 with 650mm light barrel. Barrel is shorter with a smaller diameter. The whole system is significantly lighter than mine. Currently, I know of only 3 people in the USA with the lightweight version of the KK500. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/champca...
