I bet she is alittle snorty at that weight but damn fine to carry around. Id hunt with it for sure. What bullet are you planning to run in it?
Shouldn't be too much worse than my 325 WSM that uses 10% more powder shooting 200 and 220 grainers which weighed in sub 6 pounds with a 2-7X28 and 6.25 pounds with the vortex that is on it now.
I have 200 Hot Cors to get it sighted in. Then have 210 sciroccos, 210 Paritions, and 225 accubonds all loaded up to see which it likes best. Can't really go wrong with any of those so long as one shoots less than 1.5" its plenty good for me and the distances I shoot game at.
