Mine has an 18" 6.8 ARP barrel and weighs 6.9 something pounds, I can't really remember. It really surprised me as I also weighed my Model 7 7-08 at the same time and it weighed 6.9 even I think. I didn't put any ammo in them, but this would only matter if put in a bunch of rounds. I typically only put 3 in my bolt guns and carry 2 extras, with the AR I do carry 6 just so I don't have to keep up with the spares.
As mentioned above, adjustable stock is really nice. Makes it easier to swap off with my daughter, wear layers or when hunting certain stands it comes in handy. It's also nice when carrying across your chest, you can keep the gun higher up overall and keep your hands free. With a typical sling I find myself holding the sling on my shoulder almost constantly to keep it from slipping off.
Quick follow up shots not really an issue for me until several pigs come in at once so I don't consider it a real asset.
Almost entire gun is all but rust proof and/or aluminum.
Another plus not mentioned, is that if you have multiple uppers you can easily swap uppers and thereby change calibers. You can get a .22 upper for plinking and/or small game hunting, switch for some deer hunting and switch again for varmint hunting.
Closing the bolt quietly is a pain.
