The Weatherby Carbine/Howa Ultralight has those exact same metal removed from the receiver so you will be fine. The carbine only comes in short action though. Strong actions, know plenty of people who have had one, used and abused and back for more. The bluing on them isn't that good but who cares, thats what paint is for. They have quite large barrel profile, could turn it down then flute it? nice light stock, flute bolt, shave receiver, then you still have something heavier than a T3
