Need some advice on a new AR
Man honestly, I'm not sure you know enough about the "platform" to really know what you want. Your early wish list of sub MOA/tight furniture, etc, sounds more like a bench/competition gun. Then you say you want a "battle rifle". What I would advise is reading up on which brands are considered gtg, and then go handle them at the LGS. Maybe find a range that will let you rent and shoot them. This will give you a more realistic perspective of what the AR design is and was meant to be...a mil grade weapon.
If you're coming to the AR hobby from the traditional rifle/shotgun category, the fit and finish are starkly different in most cases. Yes, you can spend the coin to have a beautifully finished AR that will do what you asked, but keep in mind, these aren't Beretta shotguns we're talking about. Unlike an AR, nobody's gonna take a rattle can to their silver pigeon.
I don't mean this post as disrespectful either. Just my personal experience, as I was once in your shoes.
Good luck.

I'm not talking about the profile, ss barrels are just heavier by nature. The Noveske linked is a light weight profile ss. I think that rifle is lighter than the larue by almost a pound.
But a Chf like the BCM will be lighter still.
I guess it just depends on what you mean by "light."
