I lose half of my brass when shooting pigs and goats, so walked away shaking my head.

The Weatherbys aren't popular here. A few like the 257 and 300, that's about it. But for every one of those sold, there'd be 20 x 25-06 and 300 Win Mags.


The 257,270 and 7mm are easy to work around,as they are 25" H&H based,if only obviously.

Simply feed any of 'em with 7mmRemMag brass,most of which will soundly TRUMP the soft Weatherby(Norma) junk. Federal being an exception and just as bad..............
