Have a strong coffee, give it 10'mins and then go for a proper good dump.
you can lose a couple of pounds in weight for the hill and keep the crisp twenties in your pocket....

am all for toys but rifles need a decent weight to them to feel right

Shove two ASE Northstars on the end. That would sort it out.

In my opinion a Titanium Rifle should actually all be made from Titanium.
But it seems that this one http://www.lawrenceprecision.co.uk/Rifles.php is not.
You get a receiver and scope rings made from Titanium, the barrel and bolt are steel.

Perhaps Titanium is not suitable for barrels and bolt bodies? Or perhaps it's not suitable for deep hole drilling. I do know it's good at high tempretures and that is why it's used for turbine blades but don't ask where i learnt that bit as I do not remember now.

If the bolt was also made of Titanium, it would gall against Titanium in the action. Hence why they would use high grade steel, as used in racing gearboxes for gears and cogs. It is heat treated , and finish ground for smooth effect. The internal part is over drilled, to leave it hollow, for weight saving. Another manufacturer who has since gone bust, using Titanium for the bolt . Titanium is an excellent choice of material for the action, others have used aluminium on many makes, such as Sauer 202 ect, Titanium is far stronger of course, for similar weight.​
