A: Not quite finished yet but almost. So far with only a short barrel to go they weigh 2lb 11oz. Bout a month away till I have five finished.

Q: So that is for the stock/chassis and action ? You still expecting the full rifle to come in at around 4.5 lbs ?

A: Yep that's for the whole rifle minus trigger and barrel, no chassis on my design. With a shorter barrel they should come in at around 4lb.

None of that makes any sense to me.. or I must be missing something
A full rifle is 4.5lb.. but thats no trigger or barrel.. so its 1/2 a rifle???
and if you go shorter barrel the 4.5lb becomes 4 lb.. but 4.5lb was with no barrel???

How is it light weight when a factory syn stock and action is the same weight?
