    Stock - 1000 grams
    Bolt - 390 grams
    Action & barrel - 4015 grams (4.1 kg)

    I was hoping to flute the bolt, hopefully shave off weight on the action, Gunworks can assist on that & get a better lighter barrel where I wanted a 6x45

    In the end like a magpie something else nice & shinny caught my attention so the project never eventuated.
    So your rem 700 weighed 5405 grams?
