Why not buy a 6.5 creed an rechamber. Factory contour will be lighter than anything aftermarket. Actually why rechamber the creed is 95% of the 260 and loads better in the magazine length of th kimbers. Buy a hunter and remove gel from stock for a 5 pound rifle. Set of Talley and a vx3i and you 5.75 pound scoped and ready to go.
