There is really only one proper course of action and that is to do a full weigh-in prior to the start of the match.
Should a LG go over weight the competitor has the option of switching his/her entry to HG if not also entered in that class already, can alter the rifle so as to reduce the weight or find another rifle to use.
Once the match has commenced the only course of action that can be taken if a LG is found to be overweight is disqualification, swapping classes at this time is not an option.
So it behoves the competitors to insist that the organisers conduct a formal weigh-in before the match commences.
