Spending a bunch of money to turn it into something different - lighter— is probably not the best money decision, very unlikely you would end up recouping what you spend should you decide to sell.
If it were me, I’d keep it if it were a great shooter and buy something more suitable as a packing rifle. It’s a buyers market now, just look at all the good buys in the Classifieds, even for full customs…. Just my .02 cents.
