    AR weight savings?

    All of my ARs are built on billet receiver sets. I'm thinking through another build and I have a question for you guys.

    If you have two identical ARs but the only difference is the receiver set, billet vs cast, how much weight savings does that offer?

    I don't want to go 'extreme' in the quest for a light rifle so I'm not at all interested in those skeleton lowers or something made out of exotic metals that cost 5x what a regular one is.

    Rather than that I'm thinking that careful selection of somewhat standard parts could help a bit.
