Most anything is possible just depends on what you are willing to pay for. Then to try and keep it around the 6.5 pounds you need a smaller lighter scope too. To get a smaller contour you are likely looking at a new barrel. The action and barrel would be your next weight concern, with the 18" you cut down some weight already, but I'm sure it is still a standard contour barrel and if you are wanting to cut weight you have to shave it everywhere so barrel contour is a place to look at weight and I have seen many of the lightweights that have skeletonized actions or at least shaved in non critical areas of the action and bolt. McMillan makes nice stocks if you don't mind paying for them. A much lighter stock is a good start, McMillan has their Edge fill which is a lightweight filler for stocks and they can do just about any stock you want. Those are cool little guns, but to answer your question yes.
