Posted By: jorgeI WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS. - 09/19/15
Picked up this nice Lazermark in 7 WBY mag last week. I'd never seen one in an oil finish/rust blue configuration so home it came. As stated over on the optics forum, I went to the "dark side" and affixed a 6X Leupold. I am very pleased with it, clear and bright with precise click adjustments:

Went to the range today with my standard loads from years ago using 140r TSXs and Ballistic tips. The top group are the BTs (3 shots) and the bottom one are four shots of the TSXs. Final one shot correction ( I only loaded five rounds, resides dead center atop the diamond and taped over (TSX).

Finally tried 154r Hornadys as well. Not bad, right at .75" but as you can see (and I expected) the TSXs continue to be the most accurate bullets I've ever shot:

Excellent shooting Jorge. smile

Very nice, Jorge-

I don't know where the myth of Weatherby calibers being 'inaccurate' ever came from. My two MkV's are easily among the most accurate rifles I own.
Stirring the pot.

If I were to own a 7mm Wby,I would try 160 gr Nosler Partitions. wink
Posted By: jorgeI Re: WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS. - 09/19/15
I would too! I just don't have any on hand, but I would also try a heavier TSX as well.
I'd check the bc on the 175 Partition and use that if going to stretch it out.

Weatherby's suck or so I have been told numerous times on this site.

Both my 300 wby mag Deluxe and 270wby accumark are accurate. Both build like a brick sht house. But they are both heavy and have 26 inch barrels. The deluxe handles like a much lighter and short rifle and its a great looking rifle. I doubt I ever get rid of it. The accumark I could see myself letting it go. I dont care to give it away as its not eating anything in the safe but I did try to trade it on here awhile back for a standard caliber without success.

I think it was the windage adjustable bases that sealed it.
jorge,Very nice rifle there..

Have a 7mm Wea. also, but it is a 700 with a Lilja barrel..
A great shooter.. I made it as a long range coyote rifle yeas ago.. But it has killed lots of big game for us.. You will love it..

As to the myth about Weatherby's being inaccurate when I was really getting money enough to buy some rifles, I wanted a .300 Wea. In the late 60's, I dealt with a huge gunshop that sold the Mark V's, plus some very fine semicustom rifles..
The reputation of the Weatherby rifle was that it was NOT accurate!!! I was told if I bought one 2" groups would be outstanding.. This shop sold one Weatherby that would not hold a group on an 8.5X11 sheet of paper.. Weatherby's reply was we build hunting rifles NOT target rifles..
At that time, my best pal bought a .300 Wea. but it was on an FN action and built with NO FREEBORE.. I shot it quite a bit an it was very accurate.. Rifles custom barreled in that area were often set up with no freebore..
Years later Weatherby built a rep. for accurate rifles, and it has held til now..

Pretty much topped it off....For me as well.. I used to use a 300 WBY for all my hunting needs. The best thing about that rifle was it wasn't a Weatherby.. whistle

That said I think better are out there, and have switched over to Talleys on almost everything.

Tastes in rifles differs....with no set standard, at least for me....

Jorge, Im glad you got a good one that shoots...its a helluva good cartridge. I like the matte finish, I must say....

Bottom line though is you gotta be the one thats happy with it, and you plainly are.

A long time ago dad used to take me to a gun shop with beautiful brand new Weatherby's shining like gold and diamonds in a glass case. At 12 years old it was hard to afford one. Now I can afford one but can't find one of those shiny new Mark V's on a shelf!
Posted By: las Re: WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS. - 09/19/15
Having been a gunsmith, and disliking over-hyped, over-priced, over-shiney, often overly heavy rifles, which in Wby calibers burn more powder than the results and recoil justify, you could give me one of those!

I'd then sell it and buy something I like.

YMMV and have at it! smile

That myth comes from people with little to no experience with Weatherbys. Mostly observers at the range watching someone scared to death of his first magnum.

Learned that by shooting their rifles to show there is nothing wrong with them.
Posted By: Cougarz Re: WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS. - 09/20/15
Nice looking rifle. I especially like the mat blueing with the satin wood. Usually I can take or leave the carving but on your rifle it looks ok.

I've always wanted a 7mm Weatherby to go along with my .257 Deluxe & .300 Accumark. I keep thinking about one in an Ultra Lightweight. Any way good luck with your new toy.

Posted By: specneeds Re: WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS. - 09/20/15
I like the current crop of Weatherby rifles better than the shiny out of reach versions of my youth but the old calibers still deliver modern ballistics decades after their introduction. Pick the bullet diameter and Weatherby has the top performance or very near it for flat shooting hunting rifles.

I agree with this.

The .257Wby ain't a bad cartridge by any stretch, though I'd rather several over it and many more over anything else stamped Wby. Can't say as I'd ever consider the .460Wby in that conversation, but unless Jurassic Park becomes reality I'd never reach for one.

Overweight, overpriced, overhyped. JMO...

Yet, if someone else wants to gun one and does so well, more power to them.
Posted By: navlav8r Re: WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS. - 09/22/15
The first time I ever saw a Weatherby was in '64 at a deer camp north of Vicksburg in the swamps of all places. It was a 7MM Wby with some really beautiful wood. The second was about four years later, a 300 Wby at Gayfers in the Biloxi/Gulfport area... Priced at $300 IIRC. The clerk patiently got it out of the case and actually let me (18 at the time) handle it. Growing up in that era, a Weatherby was THE rifle everyone wanted. I had to wait a while.

I have two Weatherby Mk 5's I bought in the '81-'82 time frame when I was stationed in Japan for $450 each...a 7MM Wby and a 240. Good triggers and very slick actions. The Mk 5 is a little heavy for the 240 but I like them both and they're not going anywhere.

As someone mentioned for the 7MM Wby Mag, don't overlook the 175 Partition at over 3000fps.

WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS.
Well why I shoot A Weatherby is because at the time it was the lightest "three" locking lug system I knew of. The small Weatherby weighs 26 ounces. My whole rifle with 26" barrel, scope, sling and ammo came in at under seven pounds.

I still don't know of a three lug type that is as light.

Weatherby makes a 3-lug action?

I have been under the impression Weatherby made 6-lug and 9-lug actions.

Tell me more about the 3-lug action Weatherby makes. What caliber(s) does Weatherby chamber the 3-lug action rifles for?

Posted By: Big Stick Re: WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS. - 09/23/15
gee',

I've shot or have got everything thus far mentioned,as well as a lot that ain't. Of the receivers made by Weatherby,the VG is lightyears ahead of all things 6 and 9-lugged.

Accumarks wear dog schit handles and have the ergo's of a 2x4...nothing there to swoon at all,though they badly botch twist rates too and that's always great news for the Fence Hopping Ping Pong Ball Fling Faction.

A S/S VG can be pressed into service,in a few chamberings they manage to get right with twist,throating and COAL latitude....................















elkkchunter,

Boy that's just gotta be really fhuqking EXCITING,saving pennies to bail a POS Goat Fhuqk Weatherby out of jail,so you can do nothing with it. Laughing!

Bama',

I read on the Interweb that I mighta shot a 257Wby once and it mighta been 700 based,a few times over.

Laughing!.............















'ager,

I shot my MKV 378 literally apart and liked 270X's at it's threshold. Trouble was/is,the rifles are pieces of fhuqking schit.

To their credit,Weatherby did restock it(it was cracked in several places),rebarreled it(shot right the fhuqk out),poked a new bolt in it(lugs were set back,installed a new trigger(it had broken internally) and reblued the works(it had the new knocked right the fhuqk offa it). As soon as I opened the box,I hung a For Sale sign on the POS.

Pard shot a 460 purty hard,but got away from it purty quick,as it was going South too.

The less you shoot,the "better" they are and it's right up Whore Hey!'s alley.

The Sako and Mouser based Weatherby offerings are triple luggers in some circles that count bolt handles.

Though them facts have nothing to do with Ringmam's Delusions................

Posted By: Ringman Re: WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS. - 09/23/15
Magnumdood,

Years ago I read about a five lug action. The bolt lift was about 35 degrees. On the Weatherby I used the word "three" lug so someone is not looking for something with about a 20 degree bolt lift. Mine is a six lug action built around the .30-06.

I would really like a small three lug titanium action for my next build. It seems one could get the action down to fifteen ounces.

Was "only" supposed to have 55 Mils on the erector,but it were the pleasentest of suplizes to count 62.5Mils instead. With 75 Hornie HPBT's right at 2800fps,it's only 12.5 Mils to 1K and but 19.2 to the 1200yd line and I'm groovin' on the "odds" of that remaining on the erector,on the otherside of it's 200yd zero.

Pouring down rain currently,so the Chrome will be willin'. Need to grab a set of caps(thunked I'd ordered 'em,but apparently not) and then it'll be Showtime.

Gotta admit as a kid I'd always thumb through Dad's American Riflemans and stare at the Weatherby Mk V ads for hours, admiring them. The .22 Weatherby was the only one he ever bought, however.

I finally bought a .300 Mk V Ultralight a couple years ago. The fact it was used should have been a giveaway. I've bedded it, and still need to work on it some more. 3350 fps with 165's is pretty slick. Gonna try 180's next, but I have to work on other stuff first.

Of the 460 Spawn,the 378 connects the most dots.

Am enjoying the windage adjustable rears,as my 378Wby sheared Reupold S/S DD base fasteners...though it admittedly were shot more than a whole fhuqking bunch.

Never been tough to cypher who shoots and who don't...................(grin)

Nothing in the WBY rifle line has ever gotten me excited. Always was a Ruger slut and now my Montana has me more than a little excited.

Cartridge wise - meh, I've known some shooters who swear by them, usually a generational thing. Grew up as kids seeing the ads or dad/grandpa had one back in the 50's...

Speed in interesting but now I'm more interested in how the bullet bucks the wind. Up/Down - dat's dialing. Reading the wind isn't easy - rather have slippery bullets at good speed than [bleep] bullets at warp speed. The harder you throw a beach ball the uglier the flight.

Old Roy did market one MKV action which I found to be pretty well balanced. Though the handle left much to be desired.

Back in the late '70's a local drug store had their entire line of MKV deluxe on sale for half price, each caliber from 224 through 340.

I picked up the 26 inch MIJ varmintmaster in 22-250. I only put about 1500 rounds a year through it. But it still managed to split the stock in the second year.

Back when I was twenty years old, I thought it was a pretty cool rifle with the Redfield windage adjustable mounts and 3-9 Redfield accutrac scope.

It took me a few more years before I discovered the inherent failings of both parts of that system.

In SS and with a svelte lightweight classic style stock, and a chambering worthy of big game, the original Vermintmaster would have made a pretty decent hunting rifle. It is really too bad they discontinued the rifle before they ever got around to building it in 25 caliber.

I would say, they are even worth the price of admission............when you can find 'em new on clearance at 1/2 price.

Gotta run new glass through it's paces today,gunning LR come-ups through a BHW 18" LW Middie. Was "only" supposed to have 55 Mils on the erector,but it were the pleasentest of suplizes to count 62.5Mils instead. With 75 Hornie HPBT's right at 2800fps,it's only 12.5 Mils to 1K and but 19.2 to the 1200yd line and I'm groovin' on the "odds" of that remaining on the erector,on the otherside of it's 200yd zero.

Pouring down rain currently,so the Chrome will be willin'. Need to grab a set of caps(thunked I'd ordered 'em,but apparently not) and then it'll be Showtime.

Big stick: is that a 1x4 SS HD on the AR? If so how is the glass and tracking? Anything better in the 1x4 realm? Was looking at a vortex PST? Need one for an AR to 600 yd only.

elkkchunter,

You gotta be on pins & needles and the edge of your fhuqking seat...awaiting to make another payment on the pending piece of fhuqking schit and biding your time,by plagiarisin' pics of women beyond your means. Then you get to flaunt your Imaginary P{retend Ignore

Congratulations?!? You "lucky" bitch.

Laughing!..............















dooshmike,

Cheer up...everyone clamors to read my every word................















'Shooter,

I've only suffered a brace of 6-lug Japerby VM's,only half of which was 22-250. Set it back and punched it out to 22-250AI,then reblued it...which is more than a fair amount of fhuqking around for a 1-14" spout. The other was in .224Wby,again of course in 1-14" (Weatherby has long badly botched twist rates) and it really is an EPIC piece of fhuqking schit.

Funny to contrast 'em,to a real rifle.

[Linked Image]

Pass the Montucky 223.................















Superkchunt,

Kudos on your being able to make the Imagination & Pretend Olympics and representing your kchountry so "well".

Reality ain't for everyone,as you oh soooooooooo eloquently attest. Do ya' figure you will make it Outdoors this year? Didn't think so. Laughing!

Bless your heart..................















Gee',

I'm rather at ease,in being afforded the luxury,of not being forced to guess about wares.

It is rather fortunate,that plagiarized pics coddle soooooooooo many of The Do Nothing Gang and brighten the sweet "satisfactions" of Fence Hoppin'.

Congratulations?...............















'495,

Your Cluelessness is never not fhuqking hilarious and you "hard charging" Texans really got it going on.

PLEASE don't "forget" you "can't" read this,as it's a daily Texas Theme to lie about Imaginary Pretend Ignore.

Just saying.

Laughing!..................















'at6,

The glass you cite,is in fact a Variable Fhuqker and it is exceedingly well thunked out. Only have a coupla hundred rounds whistled through it,as it is new this R&R. The reticle is simply GOLDEN and lends opportunity to both hold hard,subtend and illuminate as per whim and even all at once.

Against backyard tangles and set for duration on 4x,via beloved tape. The approach correlates the windshield's values,to the erector's values,as it is a SFP ware.

[Linked Image]

15' away in the house and again on 4x. Reticle isn't crisp,due to not setting up my Canon 1D MK3 in manual focus and playing with DOF in AV Mode...butcha' get the drift. Single centerpoint is red illumination,the diagonal other (2) light artifacts are reflections from the camera proper. Reticle is razor sharp at that distance and I like that it has no parallax adjustment. Illumination values are in whole numbers on an ascending scale from 1-10 and between ever full value,is an "off" switch. So you are never more than a single click away,from an illumination brightness setting.

[Linked Image]


Combining the 215+ MOA on the erector,with a MQ-esque windshield,connects alotta dots and reliably. Fhuqking thing tracks like it has eyes and it happily digests HUGE erector swings between pokes(1000 MOA+) and POA/POI correlates as per intent.

I like the extry battery compartment,as it's a sanitary place to locate/retain a spare. It resides on the outboard of the portside turret's assembly,beneath it's cap. I'm still getting a feel for battery life and have left it set on #3 since this past Wednesday evening and just strolled to my crummy and see that it is still chooglin'.

[Linked Image]

Disassembled down to the main battery which powers the unit,the spacer which keeps it and the spare apart and then the top cap.

[Linked Image]

The turret adjustments are farrrrrrrrrrrr more tactile and robust,than a Fixed Fhuqker in either MD or MQ(the MQ being the pick of the litter) and same goes extrapolations against a Reupold M1 of any configuration. The lineal erector scale is obviously svelte,so as to keep a low profile,but it could be pressed into service. Were I relying solely on it as a reference,I'd mark the scale with paint and as per my always,corroborate the zero's locale on same,by denoting it elsewhere on the rifle. I typically denote it on the drop chart,scribe it on the receiver,write in the objective cap,etc. Good intel,never aspooked me.(grin)

That being said,with the install of just halfa the Fixed Fhuqker's zero-stop compilation,I was able to arrange a predetermined 200yd zero and the erector deadheads at 2.5Mil below that,so it'll be impossible for folks to fhuqk up,when the platform is loaned out. Not too "suplizingly",zero landed with 31 Mils of "up" yet available...which'll grant nice opportunity to 75's at 2800fps. It's 1675yds balls out with the erector and windshield and that ain't a bad place to be.

As to Vortex? I've yet to see one track worth a fhuqk,or repeat...let alone take a lick.

Run Forrest.......runnnnnnnn.

Hint.(grin)















teal,

Don't pick on poor poor fhuqking STUPID '495...or you'll suffer Imaginary Pretend Ignore and the "wrath" of a Texas Hissy Fit and copious Estrogen fumes.

To be honest, I've been somewhat disappointed in the accuracy of the rifle. I generally do not keep rifles that will not group at least 1" at 100 yds. I've never been a big 280 Rem. fan, but I got the rifle at about 50% of MSRP. I've tried 140's and 150's of several different makers using several powders. I free floated the fore-arm. I'm a rifle slut and lost interest for a while. I took the scope off and put it on a sweet Cooper Montana Varminter in 7mm-08. Thinking I'm gonna give it another try between now and rifle season. I picked up a couple Leupold VX-3's in 4.5-14 x 40 CDS's. Will get some 1" rings and play. If it works I'll post pix of perforated porkers. If not I'll blow it out.

Because boolits matter more than headstamps,nothing .366" would ever rate a serious thunk in these parts. If forced to suffer something as schitty as '06-ish case capacity and Two-Scoops Of Dare to increase diameter,it'd be 338-'06 and 250 Skinners at 2550fps. Mine wears a Reupold MK4 M3 6x.

Pass the 7mm's.

Gee',

You've an uncanny knack,for focusing on all the things that don't/can't bear fruit.

Congratulations?!?

Laughing!.................















Whore Hey!,

VERY much enjoyed the 160NPT Goat Fhuqk Notion and the week long wait to punish paper with Ping Pong Balls. I'm on pins & needles as "all" your "experience","knowledge" and "results" grantcha' opportunity to shake out huge bearing surface,a schit wayyyyyy sub .500 BC and compromised terminal affects. Don't forget to regale with all the "particulars" you "learn". Laughing!

You poor poor CLUELESS Fhuqk.

Don't forget...you "can't read" this either.

Laughing!..................















OLDelkkchunt,

You'd not know the difference betwixt a Fathom and FPS...unless I was in the mood to tell you and I ain't.

It is a shame that you are devoid the requisite minimum 17 IQ Points,to cypher what an amazingly inept Drooling Dumbfhuqk you are.

Bless your heart...................















'Sky,

It's your Imagination,Pretend with it however you please.

I don't feel compelled to apologize,for being afforded the luxury of not being forced to guess. Your only GOOD move,is to print what I say and apply same.

Hint...................















'bender,

Do not think that crushing OLDelkkchunt's copious Delusions with Facts,will connect ANY dots for the Addled Kchunt.

Stupid goes to the bone.

Laughing!..................















'348,

Listen here azzhole...you are treading on VERY thin ice,because Fotis is a "Moderator" for Nosler's Paper Hat Brigade and you are fixin' to be put on Imaginary Pretend Ignore! You've been "warned". You have ZERO idea,of the deep trauma inflicted by having a Plastic Hall Monitor's Badge flashed at you and a Rape Whistle tooted in your direction.

Laughing!

The Ignorant Kchunt couldn't poor piss out of a boot,let alone knock the new offa one.

HILARIOUSLY Epic Humor!.................















'galt,

Nosler is 100% stumped and behind the curve,in making fhuqking boolits.

Their Goat Fhuqk Rifles do them no favors,as anyone who shoots more than 3-shots a decade,has long known...................















'S45,

You know that POS has been fired at least 6 or 7 times...which is "a whole fhuqking BUNCH" in Texas.

So you say.

There is where you’re wrong B

Every man is a farmer of sorts and his life reveals the fruits of his labors.
I call it The Universal Law of the Harvest.
You reap what you sow.
You plant corn ya get corn
Ya plant wheat ya get wheat
Ya don’t get corn when you plant wheat
Every mans life bears fruit.
You sow a thought, you reap a habit
You sow a habit you reap a lifestyle
You sow a lifestyle and you reap a destiny.
At almost 64, I look back and can honestly say I’ve had a wonderful life.


never had much problem with shooting straight with folks,

I use to have a Vanguard in .257 Weatherby. It was fun but almost all my hunting is under 150 yards so it made no sense. I sent it down the road and have never bought another Weatherby. I know I could get a Vanguard in a standard chambering but I prefer Remington 700's and Winchester 70's in those.

Well, with the ballistic coefficients of most ping-pong balls, you have to drive them REAL fast to be effective...but then you might have to worry about over penetration because they won't have time to expand smile

Stupidity isn't a fhuqking "standard"...it's a fhuqking plight and here's to the sanctity of your INCREDIBLE Dumbfhuqktitude and the oblivious humor it reliably reaps. Congratulations?!?

I'll feign my "surprise",that thoughts of me being nude consume you and you's farrrrrrrrr more comfy in musing that,than anything The Rifle.

Bless your heart.

Laughing!............















elkkchunt,

On the average,how many hours a day,do you spend plagiarizin'? Ain't it a fhuqking hoot,that if you applied 1/10 of that time to sourcing empty pop cans,you'd not need to layaway a Goat Fhuqk piece of schit?

You really get after it!

Laughing!..................















'348,

Them who do the least,wield Imaginary Pretend Ignore the most.

Yet another of Life's many constants..................















'Sniper,

This WILL be funnier than fhuqk! Muse some "particulars",in regards as to how you landed on TAC and the platform(s) which enabled the well "thought" out "decision",due your "experience","knowledge" and "results".

Laughing!

Cain't know which is funnier...the pending silence or your being fhuqking STUPID enough to try and take a stab at 'er?!?

Don't let the cat get your tongue,nor the couch your kchunt.

Laughing!..................















'22,

Them who shoot the least...attribute increased noise,increased recoil,increased drop,increased,drift and increased nothingness as viable "attributes" in their "pursuits".

It remains a hilarious fhuqking constant,that nothing could be further from the truth,but Imagination and Pretend are very "real" to many. Laughing!

Never been tough to cypher who shoots and who don't. Few things is funnier,than The Schit Mount and Glass Factory Fodder Crowd,tryin' to extoll a headstamp.

Bless their hearts.................















dooshmike,

If/when someone of repute unleashes a .257" Boolit worth a fhuqk,I'd happily re-kickstart The Quarter Bore Herd...up to and including the 257Wby.

It's too easy to slap the [bleep] outta all things .257",if only because boolits matter far more than headstamps.

Such simplistic facts,reliably beffudle Boobs...................















'8r,

It reliably mindfucks the Delusional Factory Fodder Crowd,at just how fast the parachute activates with Ping Pong Balls.

Have yet to have anyone visit,that didn't gear up veddy veddy differently...from the schit which the "thought" was great,prior to arrival. I'm purty good for the economy and better yet,for reliable results.

FUNNY how it actually works....................(grin)

You really get after it!

Devil's Cut ain't too shabby when feeling festive'

but Maker's Mark is a nice change-up when one is "cookin"

Camarena make's a nice shooter.

Knob Creek Creek Single barrel is mighty fine and should be on your short list IMHO.

and if you like Rye KC is also good stuff.

However to answer your question directly,you can’t go wrong with either the Frontier Whiskey (I prefer the 10 year reserve) or their Rye

It is very smooth. In fact I’m sipping some now. I goes down easy, then leaves a bit of taste on the middle, then back of your tongue, a smidge of a burn on the lips, then you feel the glow risin’ up from your innards and the the saliva kicks in and it’s time for another sip.

GWB,

That Maker's Mark is my old standby. Been drinking it since college. Been branching out the last few years. I've got a bottle of the Maker's Cask Strength that I'm waiting to drink with my best friend next time he comes home from Vegas. He's the one that introduced me to Maker's Mark so many years ago!

Lately I've been enjoying Four Roses Single Barrel and Eagle Rare. I've never been a big Jim or Jack fan, but I used to enjoy 10 year Charter. Haven't seen any of it in years, and the 8 year stuff ain't the same by a long shot.

What's the old line, don't tell my mom I work in the oilfields, she thinks I'm a piano player in a whorehouse.
Well I can resemble that remark. My grandpa on my father's side was illiterate as was my grand-ma. He ran a gang of mules and nigras on pipeline and would be gone months at a time. It fell to my dad to walk down the rail-road tracks to the local merchant to cajole him for food on credit till his pa got back and could pay. His oldest brother dropped out of high school and joined the tree-army during the depression to help feed the family. They lived in tar-paper shacks and had to dob newspapers in the cracks to keep from freezing in the winter. My grand-pa on my mother’s side was a wild-catter. His last name was Bradford. He was raised by an old single uncle, cause his dead mother's sister swore she'd never have a Bradford boy in her house. My Great grandma on my mother's side ran a boarding house and followed the oil-fields. My maternal grandpa caught my maternal grandma when she was 15. My mom was born when she was sixteen. My dad was born in Goose Creek (now Baytown). Perhaps you've heard the joke, “You know you're from Baytown Texas if you've ever used lard in bed”.

I tell folks that when I was born my parents were so po' that they couldn't afford a name, just intitials. I've been GW all my life. I can remember being about 10 years old and getting hand-me-down gun mags from a kid down the street whose dad owned a factory. I swore if I ever made any money I'd own some fire-arms. One might postulate that I’ve gone off the deep end. But if schitt ever truly hits the fan, I figure, guns, knives, hand tools, cigarettes, whiskey and such will have much more trading power than gold or silver.
I started mowing yards at 10, janitor at 16. Welder's helper, pipe-fitters helper, loaded trucks at a sheet metal plant while in high school. After I graduated from HS, I sold Fuller Brush door to door. Worked with a framing crew off and on for a year or so, 70 hours a week @ $2.50, but the guy didn't take out taxes, so I thought I was in tall cotton. Waited tables and bartended for 7 years while going to college and staying out of 'Nam. Never graduated. I got something like 170 hours with 140 or so "C" or better. Ran a steel fabrication job shop for 10 years, then went broke and lost every thing except my wife and kids. Spent three years floundering trying to sell life insurance on the debit, while delivering pizza at night and then getting up at 3 in the morning to go roll the Houston Post and throw a paper route. . I also wholesaled cars for a while during this period. Had a friend that would let me use his "P" number. I'd go buy cars from banks and Savings and loans or dealers and then give them a sight draft. That draft had to be redeemed in 24 hours. I did not have a pot to piss in but I'd buy 15 or 20K worth of cars and have to have them turned by the next day or my bud's license was forfeit. Didn't take long to get tired of that pressure. Talked myself into a Farmer's Insurance agency for a couple years till I got screwed by my DM. In 1989 I got a break (or you could say I made a break). My brother was doing commercial real estate appraisals . The owner of the shop would not hire me as I was almost 40 yrs. old, had a wife and 3 kids and no college degree (Preferably from the Texas A&M LERE program). However, my brother would hand me a file and say “see what you can do”. I’d go to the filing cabinet and pull out a report on a similar property and go to work. Because of my background I could talk to anybody from the outhouse to the penthouse. Within six months I was the top producer out of a staff of 13 appraisers. Why, cause I’d work a hundred hours a week. Next thing ya know the boss took me out from under my brother who he paid A 41% split and told me he was hiring me as a trainee at 37%. I hung in for two year till I got my license and went out on my own. I ended up doing my own thing and got lucky by availing myself of OPT, OPE and OPM and to a large degree dumb luck as the time was right. I quit doing appraisals in 96 and RE brokerage in 98 to manage my own investments. Been doing that and hunting and shooting since.

Also I don't invest in the stock market or buy gold. I used to have guys call em and want me to invest with them. I'd ask if they knew the story of "ham and eggs". Naturally they would not, so I would explain, "To the chicken it's not big deal, but to the pig, it's total commitment". They had no skin in the game. I did. If they lost my money, no big deal,as it wasn't any different than the other folks money they lost also and it weren't theirs. Nobody takes care of your stuff the way that you do.

I drive old cars, wear a cheap watch and don’t buy depreciating assets on time. I’ve used the example before. If you buy a $60,000 Ford Pick-em up truck and finance it for six years at 6% interest your monthly payment is +/- $995 per month at 3% it’s +/-$911 per month. That don’t include what you have to pay for your monthly insurance premium. I’ve never owned a new vehicle and never had a car/truck note. If I buy a rifle at 60% of MSRP each month for 72 months , at the end of that term they will most likely be worth at least what I paid for them and most likely more. The 6 year old truck will probably be worth $15,000 or less. That’s not smart in my book. I don't buy into much of what the real estate or investment guru's say but I do agree with one thing Robert Kiyosaki sez, "the man that is truly rich is the man that has more income from his income producing properties, than he has debt") Buy low, sell high, collect early and pay late. Live a life of delayed gratification. Do that for twenty or thirty years and one can let his assets support him, rather than him support his assets (and a home is not an asset, but that for another time), then one can spend time hunting, cooking, posting on the internet and taking pix.

Just sayin’

I must be hitting some (small nerves) . What the socio-Keebler elf seems to continuously miss is that some of us PREFER a certain brand of item over others, given proven performance and yes it even involves personal tastes.
We've even discovered the benefits of lubricants as have many others and indeed some have taken wood and blued rifles to from the Himalayas to the Artic. HINT...there's that lesson the pinheaded dwarf continues to miss. Yes, he's fixated on "knobs", given his "stature", he's been at dick level even to Pigmies his whole life, so I'm sure we can appreciate his "short"-comings. A good friend of mine just returned from a sheep hunt in Alaska where he took a beautiful, old ram at a LAZERED 615 yards with a Rifles, Inc 7Mag, 160 Noslers and a standard Leupold B&C reticle. No knobs, he and some of us, unlike the dwarf, just choose another method that works. I've never taken anything that far, but 350 plus is good enough for me and look MA, NO KNOBS!

Lastly, as to our "POS" rifles, I'm not surprised this thread went the way it did after the Midasshit touch of the socio-dwarf polluted it (and Stick we'll have to add reading comprehension to your myriad shortcomings as I've more than once stated I DO read your posts when they pollute a thread I started or you respond to one of mine), but suffice to say, I enjoy and like my Weatherbys and I don't have to resort to the ubiquitous cottage industry them to shoot accurately, or safely:

But do carry on using your one post a day limit here. Keeps you from screwing up other posts, you know, like your personal life...

Thats 95% of the problem with this whole website. One guy prefers ABC. Some other guy prefers XYZ.

Then I will happily take the time,to rub your nose even further,in your Incredible Dumbfhuqktitude. As an aside,I'll make it look easy,if only because it is for me. Hint.

I'm never not crystalline and 100% on the money...very often with World Class Pixels. Go full fhuqking throttle on your Imagination and Pretend and try to convince yourself,them facts ain't so.

No "surprise" you gotta drink that fhuqking much,with but a few wakeups left in the cards,as you reflect on what coulda been. Better go ride a Golf Cart to a gate,hop a fence,get a good rest on the feeder and try to tell yourself you got it goin' on.

Please don't "forget" you lying Piece Of Fhuqking Schit,that you were "telling" me about gunning long range irons ala Rack Grade wares and Ball Ammo,as a Trump Card. Mightcha' have perhaps figured out,that the ruse wasn't going to get you anywhere,other than to quantify your Incredible Dumbfhuqkery obliviously?!? Laughing!

Sweetheart,STUPIDITY ain't a fhuqking "preference",it's a fhuqking Plight and few's Plighteder than you. Congratulations?!?

Really enjoyed your Geography "Lesson" as you obliviously quantify the obvious,in that as weather patterns go,there are few places drier than the Himalayas or the Arctic. Hint...you AMAZINGLY Stupid Fhuqk. But do tell about your Magic CM Grease. To frost that cake,please pick the AO anywhere in the fhuqking World,in which CM has an "advantage". Same goes Lazer Walnut or ANY Walnut. Don't let the Coke Bottles fog the fhuqk up,as you fire up your Imagination and Pretend,so you can tote Stupidity to places it's never been before. Cheer up,I live in a desert. Laughing!

Very much enjoyed The Guided Dumbfhuqk Sheep Hunt "Tutorial"...THAT was fhuqking awesome! It was certainly a Rat to boot. Congratulations?!? I'm certain that such well "thought out" tackle,is really gonna cause a Buying Frenzy. Laughing!

Of the (3) All Time Book Dalls pards have killed on their own in the last (2) Seasons,all were lazered and pounded with POA/POI correlations. Nothing closer than the 450yd line and two of 'em took a .224" 75A-Max single poke demise,the other a .243 105 'Max nap. Greatest case capacity was 243Win SAAMI. No mounts were adjustable,no metal was CM,no glass precluded finite POA/POI correlations and all shoot more than a smidge and less Guides. Hint.

You really connected the dots,when you quantified that it takes 26-inches of barrel,85grs+ of belted case capacity and a Ping Pong Ball to get you to the 350yd line! Now that is some Jeff-O/Savage99 schit and you make them Stupid Fhuqkers look like NINJAS!!!! Laughing!

If your Lady Friend on the Guided Rat Hunt was enthralled with a .456 BC at 3100fps ala 26" spout...a 22" SAAMI 243Win tossin' a .530BC at like speed,would fhuqk her up,as much as it do you. Hint. Hell,it might even be lighter. Laughing!

PLEASE do cite someone/anyone who Today is gunning a fhuqking POS Weatherby and Re-writing The Book(s)...it WILL be fhuqking funny! Don't let the cat get your tongue,nor the couch your kchunt.

To cheer you up,you couldn't begin to fathom how many rounds I've whistled through 600's,Seven's,721's,722's,700's and 78's. Still patiently await a mechanical failure,despite all the spouts shot out. Further,a Sako or AR extractor is THE dumbest fhuqking thing one could do to a 700 lineage bolt. Though it IS entertaininger than fhuqk,that none of them pics are your's,you Drooling Clueless Lying Piece Of Schit Dumbfhuqk.

elkkchunt,

How long do it take the "sweet satisfaction" of Imagination and Pretend to kick in,when danglin' pics of them you'll never meet,from places you'll never go?

Thanks for the "particulars",in advance.

Laughing!................















'gwe,

TAC don't shine anywhere...which is of course THE funniest part. 'Course it's beyond a touch handy,to have more than a few powders on hand to extrapolate,through more than a few like chambered rifles,when actually seeing what do what and more importantly,why.

10-X throttles it,as do more than a couple few others. That in both Precision,ES/SD and velocity all. The 62X is the pick of that litter.

Hint..................















'fan1,

Pard sluiced this,last week and it's fair to middlin'. 700 based,McMillan,S/S Custom spout and a 250 Skinner. If it assists with Imagination and Pretend,folks can certainly formulate the Delusion that the glass don't wear turrets. Lazed,doped and actually pounded from a SFT/Manfrotto.

He called last night pissed and mad,because ImageShack is hinky and he had no luck on 'bucket either,so asked to see if I could get it loaded. Got it beat into 'bucket.

Mike


What's the old line, don't tell my mom I work in the oilfields, she thinks I'm a piano player in a whorehouse.
Well I can resemble that remark. My grandpa on my father's side was illiterate as was my grand-ma. He ran a gang of mules and nigras on pipeline and would be gone months at a time. It fell to my dad to walk down the rail-road tracks to the local merchant to cajole him for food on credit till his pa got back and could pay. His oldest brother dropped out of high school and joined the tree-army during the depression to help feed the family. They lived in tar-paper shacks and had to dob newspapers in the cracks to keep from freezing in the winter. My grand-pa on my mother’s side was a wild-catter. His last name was Bradford. He was raised by an old single uncle, cause his dead mother's sister swore she'd never have a Bradford boy in her house. My Great grandma on my mother's side ran a boarding house and followed the oil-fields. My maternal grandpa caught my maternal grandma when she was 15. My mom was born when she was sixteen. My dad was born in Goose Creek (now Baytown). Perhaps you've heard the joke, “You know you're from Baytown Texas if you've ever used lard in bed”.

I tell folks that when I was born my parents were so po' that they couldn't afford a name, just intitials. I've been GW all my life. I can remember being about 10 years old and getting hand-me-down gun mags from a kid down the street whose dad owned a factory. I swore if I ever made any money I'd own some fire-arms. One might postulate that I’ve gone off the deep end. But if schitt ever truly hits the fan, I figure, guns, knives, hand tools, cigarettes, whiskey and such will have much more trading power than gold or silver.
I started mowing yards at 10, janitor at 16. Welder's helper, pipe-fitters helper, loaded trucks at a sheet metal plant while in high school. After I graduated from HS, I sold Fuller Brush door to door. Worked with a framing crew off and on for a year or so, 70 hours a week @ $2.50, but the guy didn't take out taxes, so I thought I was in tall cotton. Waited tables and bartended for 7 years while going to college and staying out of 'Nam. Never graduated. I got something like 170 hours with 140 or so "C" or better. Ran a steel fabrication job shop for 10 years, then went broke and lost every thing except my wife and kids. Spent three years floundering trying to sell life insurance on the debit, while delivering pizza at night and then getting up at 3 in the morning to go roll the Houston Post and throw a paper route. . I also wholesaled cars for a while during this period. Had a friend that would let me use his "P" number. I'd go buy cars from banks and Savings and loans or dealers and then give them a sight draft. That draft had to be redeemed in 24 hours. I did not have a pot to piss in but I'd buy 15 or 20K worth of cars and have to have them turned by the next day or my bud's license was forfeit. Didn't take long to get tired of that pressure. Talked myself into a Farmer's Insurance agency for a couple years till I got screwed by my DM. In 1989 I got a break (or you could say I made a break). My brother was doing commercial real estate appraisals . The owner of the shop would not hire me as I was almost 40 yrs. old, had a wife and 3 kids and no college degree (Preferably from the Texas A&M LERE program). However, my brother would hand me a file and say “see what you can do”. I’d go to the filing cabinet and pull out a report on a similar property and go to work. Because of my background I could talk to anybody from the outhouse to the penthouse. Within six months I was the top producer out of a staff of 13 appraisers. Why, cause I’d work a hundred hours a week. Next thing ya know the boss took me out from under my brother who he paid A 41% split and told me he was hiring me as a trainee at 37%. I hung in for two year till I got my license and went out on my own. I ended up doing my own thing and got lucky by availing myself of OPT, OPE and OPM and to a large degree dumb luck as the time was right. I quit doing appraisals in 96 and RE brokerage in 98 to manage my own investments. Been doing that and hunting and shooting since.

Also I don't invest in the stock market or buy gold. I used to have guys call em and want me to invest with them. I'd ask if they knew the story of "ham and eggs". Naturally they would not, so I would explain, "To the chicken it's not big deal, but to the pig, it's total commitment". They had no skin in the game. I did. If they lost my money, no big deal,as it wasn't any different than the other folks money they lost also and it weren't theirs. Nobody takes care of your stuff the way that you do.

I drive old cars, wear a cheap watch and don’t buy depreciating assets on time. I’ve used the example before. If you buy a $60,000 Ford Pick-em up truck and finance it for six years at 6% interest your monthly payment is +/- $995 per month at 3% it’s +/-$911 per month. That don’t include what you have to pay for your monthly insurance premium. I’ve never owned a new vehicle and never had a car/truck note. If I buy a rifle at 60% of MSRP each month for 72 months , at the end of that term they will most likely be worth at least what I paid for them and most likely more. The 6 year old truck will probably be worth $15,000 or less. That’s not smart in my book. I don't buy into much of what the real estate or investment guru's say but I do agree with one thing Robert Kiyosaki sez, "the man that is truly rich is the man that has more income from his income producing properties, than he has debt") Buy low, sell high, collect early and pay late. Live a life of delayed gratification. Do that for twenty or thirty years and one can let his assets support him, rather than him support his assets (and a home is not an asset, but that for another time), then one can spend time hunting, cooking, posting on the internet and taking pix.

Its a game scout edge, has a NF 3-15 NXS on it, but will probly trade it for an Bushnell LRHS that i have really come to like.

mounts are a 20moa NF base with seekins low rings..which might also be swapped with DD's, if i can find some 30mm burris sig rings.

The Lapua brass are stamped Lapua on the head. The brass are brass colored. The 6x47 Lapua uses 6mm diameter (.243 caliber) bullets. The 6.5x47 Lapua uses 6.5mm diameter (.264 caliber) bullets.


Most are chambered in bolt action rifles. Those are rifles that you have to manually chamber a cartridge by utilizing what is called the 'bolt' that slides to and fro in the receiver. Attached to the bolt is a bolt handle to help in this action. There are also other parts such as ejectors/extractors but we'll get to those later.

Happy to help FNG's.

Fotis,

I've starred in more than a buncha movies.

Here's '335 doing,what TAC cain't.

Fhuqking Hint

I enjoy that you don't allow facts to slow your Imagination or it's Pretend down...even a smidge. You "lucky" bitch.

Bless your heart,you Do Nothing Clueless Kchunt.

Laughing!.................















elkkchunt,

That's gotta be VERY "rewarding",adding someone else's videos to your Imagination and it's Pretend. "Luckily" plagiarism is priced right,that even you can "partake".

Laughing!

Bless your heart..................















'sco1,

Had a pard gun CBS 1st poke hits on a sub MOA target at the 900yd line yesterday,with (3) different rifles...(2) of which was Montuckys.

The 7 Whizzum/162 melding,just mighta arrived the scene,with the most authority.(grin)

Gotta love losing a belt,gaining a Smooch and going S/A...............















Tanner,

There were roughly (9) Montuckies in tow yesterday and the Baby BR stole the show.

I was the only one,that weren't "surprised".

The gent with the S/A Montucky Bob is gonna go 1-8" SAAMI 243Win in a dupe/dupe,for all the obvious reasons and a few that ain't so....................(grin)














'flave,

SAAMI 243Win @ 8" is an exceptionally forgiving place to be. PV has .530BC 105's for under 20 Clams a can currently and you'll not get more...for less,nor close(BC for the buck).

The 2.8" box is plenty,a Smooch easily arranged and '17 will happily grant 3050fps with amazingly scant ES/SD values.

That'd be a hint.

Hint....................















Steelhead,

The 6-08 is a killer S/A fit,with it's snazzy BC's and reliably coughs up the most,for the least.

My favorite use of a 300 Salvage parent,easily remains 22-250AI wearing an 8" or better,with 75's at 3500fps. I couldn't get giddy about necking the parent to .264".

Am gonna go 243LBC/6 Grendel to magfeed 105's ala Krunchenticker confines,but dat's a niche,that's a leetle further offa the path. Pard was gunning 1 MOA 900yd line targets with my BHW 18" Middy and 75 Hornie HPBT's yesterday,with the Variable Fixed Illuminati,via both subtension and erector input.

Yesterday was good for Sales....................(grin)















Sammo,

A pard had his Montucky S/A Bob in tow yesterday. His 1st poke with my 20" Montucky Baby 6BR and a 105 at the 900yd line,retired the Bob.(grin)

Funny how it actually works and I mean FUNNY!

Bullets matter farrrrrrrrrrrr more than headstamps..................















'Driver,

You Clueless Dumbfhuqks are a hoot!

1000 words...Google it.

Fredrica,

Noone had brought up a .378" based .243"...yet.

What's a 105?

Most are chambered in bolt action rifles. Those are rifles that you have to manually chamber a cartridge by utilizing what is called the 'bolt' that slides to and fro in the receiver. Attached to the bolt is a bolt handle to help in this action. There are also other parts such as ejectors/extractors but we'll get to those later.

Happy to help FNG's.


But, I heard some of the big kids say that sometimes the bolt handles don't always stay attatched to the bolt. What do you do if that happens?

Dave
I have owned a lot of Wby Mark Vs, since about 1970. I have owned all the Wby calibres except for the 224 and 7mm but have shot both. I have also had seven 378s,that's right, seven of 'em grin Four were via the custom shop.

As to accuracy in my opinion the best are the Made in USA versions since about 1995.

The enemy to accuracy in a Wby chambering is if the parallel free bore section is too big in diameter. The spec is .0005 over bullet diameter. Of the standard issue Wbys the most consistently accurate is the 460. Of course this is after bedding etc. The reason for this is the 460 is a custom shop barrelled action and the freebore diameter is right on spec and sometime even smaller.

It is important to bear in mind that Wby freebore is a parallel section, like a cylinder whereas conventional chamberings it is tapered.

The freebore brings some pluses and minuses.

In a conventional chamber as most reloaders know seating the bullet a little deeper or a little further out can really tidy up the groups. However, this is not a bullet travel issues as such. What happens when you make a small change to the seating depth you alter the ignition characteristics.

A Wby does not allow that option. This results in general that a Wby chambering will not usually offer top accuracy with a wider range of components and simply because you can't really alter the ignition characteristics.

On the plus side and with an accurate load a Wby chambering is more likely to put the first shot from a clean cold barrel into the group or very close. Same when a shot is fired from a barrel with cold hard fouling.

Another plus is the Wby will generally give better velocities from powders that would normally be considered to fast. Try something like 4064 or Varget burn rate in a 300 Wby and you can see some big velocities and top accuracy. This does add to loading flexibility.

One last point concerning the Mark V action. Action feed rails are not involved. In fact the magazine is heavy metal and is similar in operation to the old 303 SMLE. Tabs on the magazine control the feeding. Thus a 257 Wby and a 460 Wby are identical actions except for the magazine/follower and the slot on the bottom of the bolt that acts a the bolt guide and bolt stop is shorter. When calibres like 30/06 were chambered in the 9 lug action the same applies. What this means is conversion of a Mark V from one calibre to another is very simple and trouble free.

In fact if my memory is working AussieGunWriter (when he was living in Australia) had a 270 Wby changed to 416 Wby and it simple. Just a new magazine box/follower and of course opened bolt face.

I hqv ehad most gun makes come through my hands and the Mark V wins for feeding reliability and double so for any of the 378 based calibres. All the 378 based calibres use a centre line feed and a centre line feed (assuming all else is equal) will always beat a stagger feed for reliability.

Personally, after having been a gun nut since about age 15 I reckon there are three factory actions. Rem 700, Model 70 and Wby Mark V.

As a side note Wby has always been regarded as the prize import agency in Australia. They stick with the appointed distributor and won't sell to others. Their Custom Shop is a pure pleasure to deal with. However, if you use the Custom Shop as opposed to buying their stand custom shop offerings on the website, then it does get expensive, very expensive.

I guess if I had to pick one rifle tomorrow it would be a custom shop 270 Wby and with the all steel bottom metal, the Krieger cut rifling barrel and Krieger action work.

Interesting Mike. I might have to try some quick burners in my 300 (Rem 700 rebarrel). I usually stick with 7828 and Retumbo.

Interesting for to try. However you will be generally better off with the slower stuff.

The other plus with the free bore is it reduces pressure spikes. This of course can mean you can use loads at higher pressure.
Posted By: bellydeep Re: WHY I SHOOT WEATHERBYS. - 10/05/15
Mike,

Maybe some 4350 with a Barnes 150 TTSX?

Probably stick to Retumbo for the 200gr Accubonds...
With 26 inch barrel you should see over 3000 f/s with 200 grainers. 3050-3070 and 4831 will get there.

If you want proper loading data for Wby calibres try and get hold of one of the old catalogues they used to sell. That has for real data not the bullshit in today's manuals.

But if you have any like 4064/Varget and work a top load with 150 grainers you will be surprised at the velocity and quite often the accuracy is as good as it gets.

So far it has worked on a few 270 Bees
I too have has the same results in the 270 Wby.

In my experience the 270 Wby with top and accurate loads will be faster than the 7mm Rem when using 150 grain bullets.
