Guys who have cut their 22 inch barrels down to 16-17 inches about how much weight can I expect to lose?

For factory lite barrels I think it's 1-1.5 oz per inch depending on caliber.

My first time putting a rifle together after many years of buying custom or barreled actions. Got a used 300wsm T3X action, a lightly used 20" 6.5PRC PBB prefit, KRG Echo on black friday, trigger spring, Area419 20moa rail and an HCA tikka mag. 9lbs 9oz with suppressor attached. Going to go shoot it today.

That is pretty light. What do you figure that barrel weight was? Was there a reason you went echo instead of bravo?

I don't know about the barrel weight, I think it was the tikka hybrid contour plus the fluting and only being 20" its not too heavy. The Echo is lighter than the Bravo and accepts tikka mags.
