JMHO - others have run more than I have, but this is me:
-Dump the can - it adds bulk for and mass for benefits that aren't actually worth it. Fighting words: but I think those things are worth way less than people act. There's a reason no military bothers with issuing cans.
-Run lighter glass. I don't know what you are running, but 16X power is a bulky mess that you don't actually need to hit stuff with. Look hard at weights of glass. Run a light mount as well.
-Run a slimmer barrel. For whatever reason, it's hard to find someone making a non-heavy Grendel barrel. Faxon makes a decent dimensioned 16". I actually run a 14.5" I had cut to slim BBL profile, and love it.
-Run slimmer and lighter foregrip. Most people run grips longer than they place their hands in reality - run one that exposes your gas block, and it'll be lighter, and you can service your gas block.
-FWIW I run mine field unit on a magnesium lower.
