    That's heavier than a kimber. Action is also heavier than most custom actions which is a shame. Especially with a titanium bolt.

    GRC at 21.3ozs

    Lone peaks are around 20 ozs for a short action

    The Steel Defiance anTi are 21ish I believe.

    The peirce featherweight action that's a titanium receiver and bolt is only 15ozs but likely 16ozs as it doesn't include recoil lug.

    Plus all the other customs allow for a longer magazine.

    I like the NZ iniative but a few suggestions I would make would be to shave some weight to warrant full titanium.
    Allow a flush mag vs detachable
    Have scope mounts available vs rail.

    Still epic kiwi stuff and if a few of the above changed I'd buy one. They will also build with your spec parts ie different barrels or triggers.
