Hduke86 and 19_A_CPT I can fix you up !

Lol not together you can't but that is one beautiful rifle. I would have to carry it with white gloves on so I didn't scratch it.

Tell me more about the barrel please
Is it #1 or # 2 contour?

Ammo is very easy to get.

??? Where?
I've found it very difficult to find ANY Weatherby ammo since this past Fall.

 

[Hduke86]

I figured you could just share it. Lol

Sort of like joint custody lol

Sweet...that is a beauty

Tell me more about the barrel please
Is it #1 or # 2 contour?

And barrel length?

It's a 24 inch barrel and best I can tell on one of the forums they say the 24 is considered a No 1 and the 26 is a No 2. It's not a pencil barrel though.

Sounds like it is what Weatherby has long referred to as their #1 Contour barrel.

Man, you always have some nice weapons.

When I began seriously hunting big-game,
the Weatherby Mark V was considered the Gold Standard
of serious big-game hunters.

At the time, it was the most heavily loaded .30 caliber rifle available,
and many people saw the .300 Weatherby as the single one gun that could actually work for hunting any big game in the world.

About the only complaint I've ever heard has been,
"Man! That gun is too pretty to hunt with!"

Sort of like joint custody lol

You can have it during the Spring Seasons and I take the Fall Seasons? Good compromise?

 

[Hduke86]

Sounds like y'all have it all figured out !! However it's gonna be a little rough on Turkey! Lol

Between this and Kimber45 "squirrel gun" the turkeys and squirrels are in trouble lol

I was under the impression a #1 barrel is a pencil, but if not I can attest it is a lightweight barking MF'er. I sold my 24" 300 Wby Mag because of it.
