Default RE: ideal rifle weight

ORIGINAL: handwerk
Lets say your going out west to hunt pronghorns and mulies, with a .270 . Hunting by spot and stalk. What would the ideal bolt action rifle weigh loaded and ready to go?
IMO, rifle, scoped and ready to go, approx. 8lbs. for a 270Win.
(No less than 7-1/2, nor more than 8-1/2lbs.)
