I have been using a Cholat Ultra Varminter chassis stock and it really works. It has a piece of angle iron that the action sits in. But IT IS HEAVY. Is there a stock that is built similar with a chassis system that is not as heavy. I have all Long Action Stagger Feed with solid bottoms (no clip).

You might want to look at an mdt lss. Lss stands for Light Sniper system. It’s kind of heavy though.

The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
MDT LSS XL - longer forearm.
Thats what is under the BH TL3. The MDT LSS XL G2 It is much better than the LSS in my opinion. Unless you add a spigot to the LSS it is too short of a radius for the bipod...again IMHO the XL is a little flimsey out on the end.

The Choate isn't a chassis stock, it's a polymer stock with an aluminum V-block for bedding (not angle-iron). They're big, bulky and heavy which is great for Andre the Giant types, but most average size folks often refer to Choate stocks "Choate Anchors" for good reason.
The V-Block doesn't offer any benefit over a properly pillar and glass bedded stock so don't let the absense of one deter you from other brands/models. Unfortunately with the chassis craze that's hit the market in the last 10 years finding high quality laminate or synthetic stocks for a Savage just keeps getting harder and harder. Savage's insistence on continually changing things doesn't help matters either.

The lightest chassis I've seen is the XLR Element 3.0 Magnesium at 16oz for just the chassis sans accessories. It's expensive and requires a lightweight grip and stock to keep the weight low.
What about the XRS, weight is 3.9#.
Oryx is worth a look.
