I suggest you e-mail Struble, info@strublemfg.com and they can probably help you. Very good people to deal with.

Hi Doug! That might partially depend on which wood nsert you choose and of course the bore size (larger bore=less material). I've got a number of the skeletons here I could weigh for you, but if you need the weight with the wood insert we would probably need to talk to Struble as per Bob's suggestion. He's right, too--Juanita and the Struble team are awesome folks.

Talk to you soon,

Doug,

The U-25 hardward (including butt cap but not including inlet cork ring) weighs approx. 0.68 oz (19.2 g). You can figure that the insert will add +/- 0.36 oz (10 g) to the overall weight (more if you use a stabilized insert).
