I went bear hunting last year, wondered around the woods all day in Boone County by a coal mine. Everyone else brought bolt actions with wood stocks. Everything was of the .30 caliber variety, British .303, 2 .30-06s, and a .300 short mag. I brought a NEF .45-70 with a synthetic stock, at the end of the day everyone was complaining how sore they were from carrying their guns. I didn't even need to shoulder mine, kept it in my hands and carried a spare bullet in my hand too. Only thing sore on me was my legs, something to be said by keeping it simple.
