Rifle lose 1-2lb without major changes?

Have a ~16.7-16.8lb 6.5x47 rifle that I built purely to shoot for fun right now. This is without a bipod. It's probably my favorite rifle to shoot 100-1k yards right now so I don't want to mess with it too much but maybe I'm missing something here.
However, if I were to shoot at an NRL event or two for fun later this year or next, it would be nice if I could come in under the 16lb limit with this particular rifle. If it's not viable with my wants right now though, it's fine - weight limit or no, I was going to shoot skills division anyways. If I REALLY had to go compete today, I would just bring a different rifle.

Obvious answer but don't want to:
6.5x47 26" M24 contour barrel - it barely meets power factor as is when ~55-60F at close to sea level right now (140gr at about 2720-25 right now) so I can't just chop the barrel down. Don't want to spend money on a new lighter contour shorter barrel in a faster cartridge I like less for skills division.

Viable but not enough:
Remove sunshade + wrap on optic - saves 3oz
Full length Arca - MCS rail + arca weights could be swapped for a shorter rail with no weights - save 3.6oz without weights and maybe 1-2oz on a slightly shorter rail or just chopping it down a bit? (Don't want to cut rail too much due to mounting points on stock + rail is already skeletonized anyways to allow for weights to be inserted).
ATS brake - Yes, I could remove this or put on a lighter brake, but I like the way it shoots with the brake right now - saves ~6-8oz removed, 1-2oz swapped

Things that are probably less viable or won't make enough of a difference, but listed anyways in case I'm wrong:
- Manners MCS PRS stock - weight spacer on the butt end of the stock has already been removed - it's just the aluminum rings as spacers, the rubber pad, and the mounting plate for the rubber pad now.
- Leica PRS scope with Hawkins 2pc rings - I suppose I could remove the diving board from the scope rings and save 1oz there? I don't want to switch to a different optic.
- Hawkins M5 DBM, ARC CDG action, BA trigger, dope card, probably 1-2 more very small <1oz parts I'm forgetting. - Doubt there is much weight to be saved here.

Ruger American Gen 2

Picked up the new gen 2 for a cheap truck gun. It’s a 600$ rifle so the things associated with one of those like a flimsy stock , an okay trigger , okay action etc are all there .

But holy crap this thing hammers in the precision category.

With reloads for my custom 6.5 it did two groups .45 - one unsuppressed one with a suppressor . Load was 140 eldm, 41.7gr H4350 , set at 2.81, fed 210 primer , Hornady brass neck sized only.

With factory Hornady 129 grain SP it did two .8 inch groups.

Will try the 143 eldx and 140 match next.

If anyone was curious about the gen 2 , my sample size of one is a hammer for a factory rifle . Hopefully more guys can chime in when they get theirs up and running !

QC Action Choice

I have been doing a ton of research and I feel like I am drinking from a fire hose. This post will probably go the same way. I am wanting a quality bolt action that I can get prefits for. I have narrowed it down to impact, terminus, and Curtis. I could be missing some but that’s what I found. My thought is to get a couple barrels and could swap them out here and there.

I have started rimfire PRS so the thought would be maybe a 223 Wylde trainer barrel then season starts a 6GT or creed.

Any suggestions. Is swapping 223 to 6.5 even feasible. Figured I would get some thoughts.

Edit- to clarify the feasibility. I was more thinking changing calibers/ barrels during the season. I get the feasibility of actually doing it. Bolt face and barrel etc. I am more looking for yeah I do that and it’s a good idea or that’s dumb. Takes more time than it’s worth just have 2 actions.

So.......

So what's everyone's breaking point. Our forefathers got pissed at the high tax and no representation.

We are at this point once again. So when is everyone gonna say fuck the system and finally hit the reset button.

Seriously, when are we finally going to stand up for ourselves and say enough is enough.

Not asking for a friend.....

AR suppressor problem

Im trying to figure out why an AR in 7.62x39 operates fine when unsuppressed but jams every shot or every second shot when firing suppressed?

Shooting from a 16” barrel and a SilencerCo Omega300

is the rifle with suppressor on not getting enough gas to operate correctly or maybe getting to much gas and failing to operate correctly? Any ideas?

Thanks ahead of time.
