https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/galleries/16232787#Post16232787This rifle is a Weatherby MK V 9-lug made in USA and chambered in .30-06. Yes, I know they never made these, but here it is. It has a satin blued finish in really good shape and an injection molded stock. It comes with Burris bases. The action is incredibly smooth and everything works as it should. it hasn't been shot much, but I don't have a round count. $750 shipped. The first "I'll take it" followed by a text to 904-525-3590 gets it.
It also comes with a NOS Weatherby stainless barrel threaded and chambered in 30-06.
The last post sounded a bit confusing. The muzzle end of the barrel is not threaded. It's threaded for installation
So this is a complete rifle in 30-06 plus a separate factory 30-06 barrel?
I am not sure how they reduced the bolt face to 30-06 diameter on a 9 lug bolt face. Custom from weatherby or custom from a gunsmith you think?
There was a period of time, pre 6 lug years where standard calibers were produced on the 9 lugger.
Good luck with your sale.
Pre 1997 if I remember forectly..
I have a NIB Lazermark with diamond inlays that says “WEATHERBY custom” on the bottom metal. 9 lug action, 30-06. All factory, even think I have the factory letter
My son has a Weatherby Mark V Weathermark 9 lug in 30-06, 1995 vintage, one of the last of the Japan Weatherbys.
I forgot to add that it has a TriggerTech trigger installed. The original trigger comes with the package. And yes, it's a complete rifle, all blued with a second, new Weatherby factory barrel in the same length and contour and also chambered in 30-06.
I own a 9 lug weatherby in 30-06 along with my father in law they made several non weatherby calibers, 30-06 is still the # one choice why would any manufacturer not sell one?
I would have thought a Mk V with a TriggerTech trigger and a spare barrel was worth $750. I guess I'll keep it. You can't have to many 30-06's.
Putting this one back up for sale

It's a Howa manufacture, they also built 240 weatherbys in the same action. Great rifles and above average precision and workmanship.

Judging from the pictures it’s not a Howa. It’s a Weatherby action. Great rifle and good deal!

This one is made in USA. Not by Howa

Its a rarity since they made most of their 270,30-06 USA guns on the six lug action.
Long thread, so here's the summary: rifle is a Weatherby MK V 9-lug made in USA and chambered in .30-06. It has a satin blued finish in really good shape and an injection molded stock. It comes with Burris bases installed and s separate set of standard Leupold rings and bases. The action is incredibly smooth and everything works as it should. it has a Trigger Tech trigger installed. It also comes with a second barrel (NOS Stainless, chambered and threaded for installation, 24-inch, identical profile) that is NOT installed on the rifle. It hasn't been shot much, but I don't have a round count. $750 shipped from a non-FFL holder to your FFL. The first "I'll take it" followed by a text to 904-525-3590 gets it. If you respond here or send a PM here on the fire, it could be a while before I see it. If you are interested TEXT me or CALL me at the above number.
Weatherby made only 2 non Weatherby calibers in the Mark V action, 30-06 and 22-250. The 22-250 was in the smaller 6 lug action.
I have a German 9 lug240. It was not modified
Per our texts, I'll take it.

Better than advertised, excellent communication and fast shipping. Couldn't ask for a smoother transaction and yes, it's most definitely a 9 lug MK V 30-06! Lol!
I remember these. Yes they were 30-06 9 lug actions and if I recall it was I believe Edenpine industries out of Maine producing these. I thunk that's correct but I know for certain they were produced because I remember seeing them first person
