Does my dream rifle exist?

Savage lightweight hunter...as pictured with scope weighs 6lb 3 oz, without scope is 5lb 6oz LOP is 13 inches. This one is in 7mm08 and haven't shot it yet. Handles and shoulders like a dream for me. Only negative that I see is that little plastic clip magazine release but I can live with it. Here are the specs as from the Savage website.

The savage lightweight hunter seems to fit all the requirements, though the box mag might be plastic.

Norm99 beat me to it
 
Older USRA Model 70 Lightweight Carbine,the model without the rifle sights. They came in 20" bbl and were right around 6 lbs if IIRC. I had the long action in '06, it was a mere 6 1/4 with 22" bbl. If I remember there was a later run with the WinTuff laminated stock as well. Cool or what!:eek:

You said you couldn't find your dream rifle, and you didn't rule out previously owned, or old stock NIB never fired.

A Model 70 would fufill any riflemans dream I'm sure.:p
