@ Hunting man---- the last I out a family traditions stand it was not much lighter than that, not as tall and made of steel. These are a one time purchase, very moveable, with the intergrated rail. Can't go wrong. Not the middle of the road. just not your cheap throwaway stand you have to replace every 3-4 yrs.
middle of the road comment was for weight not construction remarks. Most stands last 15+ years if taken care of. When you are a couple of hundred over the norm it had better be something special.
