Custom Action Weights

[Wiley2019]

Looking to put together a new western hunting rifle and I’m trying to save a little weight over some of my current rifles. Primarily looking at the anTi X and Nanook, but open to other options. If you have experience with those or any other lightweight option I’d love to hear your opinions.

What I’m struggling to do is compare the weight to my other actions (I have 4 built of Zermatt Origins) and there seems to be a lot of variance on listed weights for the Origin. I see it listed at 28oz on some sites, 31oz on others, I even saw it listed at 50oz on one website which doesn’t seem right. The only thing I can think of is maybe some of those weights are without the rail and lug and other weights include those. If anyone could give me their own measured weight including the rail and lug I’d really appreciate it.

I know this isn’t terribly important because I’m saving weight either way, I’m just trying to get a comparison to see how much weight I’ll save vs the money invested into a completely new rifle. I just see the listed weight for a “lightweight” action like the NBK being heavier than the chunky Origin and it just doesn’t add up in my head.

Here’s what I’m thinking for the build as of right now.
-Lightweight LA action
-20-22” 7PRC carbon barrel, probably Bartlein or Proof
-MDT HNT26 folder or XLR Element Mg
-Leupold VX5 3-15x

Any recommendations for other parts to shave a little weight or personal endorsement of the things I listed are appreciated.
