They are certainly not as light as a Kimber, but the older Ruger 77RS with the tang safety in .35 Whelen is nice. I picked up one several years ago in original mint condition. The nice thing about it, is you can buy a trigger spring, and a sear from Ernie, and have one of the finest triggers around. I never put the new sear in, as the new lighter trigger spring did the trick. Good luck in finding a nice Whelen.
