Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Lightweight short barrel hunting rifle?

My deer hunting rifle last year was a Remington SPS heavy barrel 20 inch. Nice and compact and shot really well. Reason I got rid of it was it weighted about 12 pounds. I am in the same boat as the opening post, but I'm pretty set on a Kimber 84M or if I pony up enough a Kimber Ascent.
