Depends on the size of your handguard. The Hardy from rifle craft is nice and light, I have two, one for an AR and one for a 6XC.

I use a compact Predator 8 on my 300aac Handi rifle, measuring it against my S&W 15-22 it's a good fit with only a small gap between the mod and the forend. The S&W has a 16" barrel with a 10" forend.

Hardy mod goes back over the barrel but would not go under the handguard.

Between ovenpaa and one less charlie you should be able yo get a bespoke mod made.
I have one as you describe on my 9mm and another coming for my 6.5x47. Both reasonably priced considering the cost of off the shelf makes.
