WCF, congratulations should you decide to keep the rifle. Actually nine pounds is probably about right in the finished rifle. There's still some weight to be added though! To my mind the barrels are too long. Should you choose to bob them you'll likely save more weight than you'll add in ribs, sights, furniture, etc... Shortening those barrels will also do wonders for improving the "feel" however you'll now end up with oversize (diameter) muzzles, which could negate the improvement that could have been possible had the barrels been made a more managable length before going this far. It's 45-70 is it not?
