This may have been done before. What is the average weight, and/or your preferred weight, for a whitetail rifle hunting (scope included) in blinds and tree stands? Why?

My 38” 6.4 lbs. Winchester model 94, or my 39” 8 lbs Tikka T3X 308.
Pretty much all I hunt with.
I still hunt in the thick, close woods near me, and like a short, light, quick to shoulder rifle for that.
My 94 is perfect for the thick stuff, but my Tikka can do that at just a pound, and a half more weight, and is excellent for sitting some of the AG fields, and stands that we hunt also.
