I have soft BA IIIA or IV, I think. It's near 10 pounds.
In mid winter it keeps me nice and warm as long as I'm moving.
The big draw back is that due to my bad back it really reduces my time in the field. Add a 35 pound basic load out w/water and I'm a turtle. The new Spandex like LBE material along with the DKX plates would really lighten-up that load and if I was to buy again that's the way I would fly.
