Lighten up my rifle

Well, I guess my rifle doesn't really like shooting tight groups, so I'm thinking about going more toward a light weight "go to" gun.
Right now, I have the Knight's rifle length free float tube and a Ko-Tonics barrel, Magpul CTR, and lefty Stag upper. Optic is an Elite 4200 2.5-10x50.
Is there a lighter tube? I hate rails, and liked their's because I can add short bits of rail for my needs. Maybe a smaller optic or irons?
I am also considering going to a plastic standard forearm, but like the idea of a free float.
What to do...?
Let me hear your opinions

What is the barrel length? The new Troy 11" MRD Extreme are the lightest ones.
Also remove anything you have upfront such as a bipod.
Their barrels have the SPR profile, which are heavy
You may want to run the Tubbs Final Finish bullets through that upper. It should help with the accuracy.
