Like previously mentioned a varmint weight rifle isnt a lot of fun to lug around all day long. What type of terrain are you hunting? A predator type rifle with a 20" med weight barrell in 308 is a good choice and if chosen properly can be kept around 8lbs. 308 is an excellent caliber with tons of choices in factory ammo and there is plenty of relativley cheap plinking ammo as well. Check out a rem model 7 predator.
