my 80 with a v glide kit in .177 was so good i sold it.the best springer i have owned,smoothest to shoot and the most accurate.total weight was under 9.75lbs with a 3-12x44 mamba light.for me the 80 is the best springer out there with the same mods as i had done.my 95 that was also tuned was never as good and i could not shoot it as well.if you can "lift" the 80 and hold it i would go for it every time.only sold mine as i like the kick and now have an evo.just for information my lsr rifle is a s400k with a ginb stock and that outfit is heavier than my 80 so i do not regard the 80 as heavy.other good rifles are the 97,tx and prosport.all will do what you want at the end of the day,just go for the one you like the look of the best
