The lightest I've ever used is a Falcon FN12. Mines a single shot but, I believe they did make a multishot with a light hunter stock.
It might not be the easiest thing to find now though. Freeads might be worth a search.
Hi All,
Last year I fell in love with Bullpups, still love 'em, I bought myself a Kral Puncher, which is a superb rifle but very heavy (to me, because I am a weak old git and partially disabled), so it is'nt getting any use. I have seen pictures of the BSA Ultra and the Brocock Contour, which are advertised as being lightweight. My question is, are these the only choice or is there more out there to look at?

All of the above.
The SMK 900 is very light.
Open sights with scope rail.
Single and multi shot.
Cheap and great for youngsters/ oldsters.
The Smk P15 bullpup is also good and light.
The Brocock Bantam Hilite is a good choice if you want to spend more.
I have the 900 and the Brocock and enjoy them both.
Especially enjoy picking them up!
I've owned Ultras and Contours, imo you would struggle to find a lighter gun than a Brocock Contour, they weigh almost nothing
Artemis p15 bullpup is very light and accurate.
AA Superlite - 410 or 510
Daystate Regal
HW100Ks/t - carbine versions
All good quality and decent guns available 2nd hand from £350 to £550, my only watch out for is the AA stocks are easily marked as they are made of "poplar" wood. The Regal is by far the nicest, and the HW is well proven, but a love/hate looks wise.

Thank you for all your comments, keep em coming! My Kral Bullpup is over 7lbs in weight. So far the Contour is looking the best bet at 4lbs 5ozs. Just been out on my range with the Kral, I forgot how much I liked it! especially the 14 shot magazine, but it is still too heavy for me and it has to go.
I have the AA S510 carbine (standard version) but they do a superlight version. The 510's are cracking rifles, super accurate and the build quality is fantastic.
If you can find one a Benjamin marauder (p-rod) carbine is very light with a great trigger and ultra reliable magazine. They aren't that common in the UK but if you don't mind importing there are a few reliable European retailers that stock them.
One shot, one kill. Not luck, just skill.
SMK Artemis P15 is a bullpup and weighs 4.5lb. Best of both worlds because you already said you like the bullpup configuration.
You can spend thousands and still miss a barn door or spend just enough and enjoy yourself. If you haven't got the talent to start with a million pound won't fix it. Whippet, Russell, a few bang sticks and a flat cap. http://www.smart-tech1st.co.uk
