It's a nice case, but heavy as hell, and the latches are a #!@*@.  I know you didn't ask, but if I had to do it all over again, I'd go with TR's recommendation for Starlight.

 That is the bottom line.
 
The Pelicans weigh so much that if you put much more then one light rifle in the double rifle case, you have busted the airline weight allowance that they recently dropped.
 
The Starlight allows you to carry at least two rifles in it.
 
Just my .02, YMMV.
