ready to hunt rifle weight.

My light barrel rifles from 223 to 300 win mag all wear 3-9 scopes to keep weight under control. It's enough scope for a long ways for me. My lightest is a nothing special Browning xbolt stainless stalker 7mmwsm. Talley lightweight rings, and a burris 3-9x40 scope. Weighs 7.36 pounds unloaded. Heavy enough to be easy to shoot well, and handles faster and better than anything else I have thats just a bit heavier. Really gotta pay attention to scope and mount weights for what you want to do.
 
If she has the interest to have her very own rifle and she doesn’t mind the spending, let her choose what she wants, what she thinks is important to her… weight alone isn’t the answer, but proper fit along with weight is!
My wife shoot and hunts with me but she’s happy with what ever I put in her hands…
