Are you sure the weight is correct (
4.28 lbs)?
Off the bat: CIM (2.8 lbs), RS 550 it looks like? (.48 lbs), VP (.76 lbs). That alone is 4.06 lbs... Add the chain your using and your already at the weight mentioned above. I think you might want to go back through and set actual material properties when you get a chance.
