Might want to look closer. That carbon wrapped barrel likely makes it lighter than most with a 16” standard barrel.

Not sure if that's a proof, but depending on the model, they tend to weigh about the same as normal barrels.

For example, the 16" 223 proof is 1 lb 11 oz while a bcm 16" elw is 1 lb 6 oz, and a 16" government profile is 1 lb 12 oz.

Or the balistic advantage 20" 6.5 creedmoor tac gov profile is 2 lb 13 oz while the proof of same length and chambering is 1 oz less.

Sure, they weigh less than heavy profile barrels, so it just depends on what you make the comparison against.
