I have some heavy barrel rifles, and I like them. Dont mind carrying them around.
But my most practical varmint rifle is probably the MK 2 stainless Ruger I have. Black skeleton type stock with a 22 inch skinny barrel.
It'l shoot short and far and is a delight to carry.
I dont go for long walks with a heavy rifle and I dont sit at a bench shooting long strings of prairie dogs with a skinny barrel.
Someday I hope CZ comes out with a stainless American with a laminate stock.
