Depends on what "hunting" I'll be doing with it. On my hunting revolvers, I like about 2.5#, pretty light I know, but there's so much more chance of "PULLING" the trigger altering your shot in a handgun than in a rifle (as opposed to squeezing the trigger).

For long range varmint hunting, I use my Savage 12FVSS, set down to 1.6#, it doubles as a small bore cf benchrest rifle, I just never change the trigger, a little heavy for targets, a little light for hunting, does both pretty well.

I've got a few deer rifles that I've not changed the trigger pull a bit on, I've got a Marlin 1894 and 1895 unaltered that run around 5.5-6.5#, I've got a SKS I hunt with occasionally that's about 7# and a Ruger M-77 about that bad too. I usually don't mind heavy trigger pulls, I've got a .38spcl derringer with a 14.2# pull...building fence all these years has left me with a pretty strong grip, it's just remembering to squeeze instead of pull.

I've got a Anschutz taken down to 7oz. too!!!
