Lightweight Defiance proof build out

[cb4128]

I'm thinking about gathering parts for a light weight 7mm build and wanted to see if anyone could give me an idea of what the finished weight would roughly be?

Here's the parts list:

Defiance AnTi-X long action
TT Special Trigger
Hawkins bdl bottom metal, follower, spring, box, action screws
Proof Sendero 24" prefit in 7 rem mag
Mesa Precision Altitude stock

Anywhere in the mid to low 6 lb range is what I'm shooting for.

Thanks for any insight!

Building a light 7mm right now
Anti XM
Defiance hinged floor plate
Hawkins hybrid rings
Proof Sendero 22"
Manners EH-4
7mm Sherman max.
Comes in at 6lb 3 oz with rings on the action (no scope obviously).

I'd guess your build will be 6lb 10oz. Just a guess.
