Weight of Monarch RT3?

Anyone know the weight of this shock? (just roughly, this isn't for a scientific experiment or anything)
Monarch RT3 High Volume - 190mm (22,2x8/22,2x6mm) (from bike manufacturer)
I guess they mean this one; 222 xx 66mm (8.75x2.6") (From SRAM webby)
I know little to nothing about rear shocks. SRAM's webby claims 215g for the 165x38mm, so how does that equate to the bigger model above?
Cheers.

unlikely they mean the 222 when they say 190mm
what you see aftermarket has little to do with OE."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

the 22.2 x8 and 22.2 x6 with be the fitting hardware at a guess.
and weight difference over the size range will not be great as you are only talking about a few rings of metal that are quite thin and light and upto 2" tall from the listed weight one to the longest."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
