Looks darn good.
Don't know what the titanium brake weighs, but it might be worth comparing it to potential lighter options (such as A2 birdcage, or perhaps just a thread protector).
Regarding optics, it seems a little redundant to have both a variable power scope and a reddot sight. You might consider a fixed power scope to save some weight, or lose the reddot if you stick with a variable. Keep it simple.
For a mount, individual non-QD aluminum rings might save some additional weight. The QD one-piece mount seems unnecessary if you're not going to have BUIS.
My suggestions are not intended to be critical of your current setup. I like it as it sits. But if the primary goal is to shed some weight for a particular hunting application, just thought I would throw out a few potential options.
