Be them light or heavy proper fit is everything. Nothing wrong with either if you can shoot em. I see too many hunters show up at my club in the fall with the 5.5 lb 12 bore that they gave zero though to fit and wonder why they beat them to death. Course a 10 pounder will pound w/o correct fit too.
So light or heavy is all good as long as the fit is correct.
They need to shoot where you look and the stocks need to fit the shooter. That IMO trumps weight
This, plus proper balance. A little weight forward (for me) makes even a heavy-ish gun, like say a Fox Sterlingworth, feel lighter than it is.
