well hunting rifle is a relitive term most people shoot something like a bolt action with a five round magazine. i have seen hunting rilfes that weigh anywhere from 6 pounds dry to 25 lbs dry it all depends on what you are doing if you are hiking a lot and moving i recommend a light rifle if you are sitting in one spot all of the time you can get away with a heavier rifle but if you don't have a clue what you are doing i would go with a Remington 700 adl with a 24 inch barrell in probably 270 which will put you right about 9 pounds that is what i shoot and i pack for 20 per day so i would go with that

If my rifles get heavier than about 7-8lbs I no longer enjoy toting them around the farm all day for hunting groundhogs.

Yes alas why i didn't say a toting 25 pound rifle
