Default Dumb question on total piston and rod weight

I understand that each item has a weight guide line, then there is the total weight of piston assembly. The dumb question is, does the total weight also include rod bolts, nuts, and bearings? It lays out the individual pieces but excludes these 3 items. Asking because my assembly weight is way off. Thanks Jeff

That's where I was at and the last column is minimum assembly weight 1254 but doesn't state complete rod assembly of 1254. I'm about 80 gramsover per assembly which is piston, rings, wrist pin, rod, bolts and nuts and no bearings
