Were it a 1-7" Speedmire throated for 88/90's and wearing better bases/rings,with the G3 Lit version(LRTSI '12x),she'd be a PEACH. Hint. ![[Linked Image from imagizer.imageshack.com]](https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1600x1200q70/923/9SxvnE.jpg) Just sayin'................ Yeah, BUT its NOT YOUR rifle is it? Does everyone on the campfire need YOUR approval for what rifle they get because THEY liked it and it was their money in the first place... NOT yours. Are your insecurities so great, that it drives you nuts, if everyone doesn't do exactly like YOU do? Just sayin..... HINT... Have a good day Stumpy....

I wish Weatherby would have put the .250 Savage they made on the Varmint Master action into production. I remember reading an article in one of the gun rags about it but it never came to fruition I remember reading an article about that in Peterson’s Hunting in March/April 1993 Awesome firearm IIRC, Weatherby made a prototype and Layne Simpson did an article on it.

Great score on that rifle. Had a chance at a Vanguard years ago, that I would have rebarrelled to .250, but I hemmed and hawed too much. Enjoy.

I've been really tempted to rebarrel a Kimber 84M into a 20" .250 Savage....this thread isn't helping.

Sounds right but my memory……😉 IF I remember correctly the rifle he received to test was #1 of 2 prototype/examples. Weight was , I think, 6 1/2 pounds. Again the memory question 🤷♂️

I'd enjoy EVEN SEEING one of those in great shape, in your hands, or anyone else's for that matter. you have SUPERB taste my friend. MY unicorn is a Model 54 in the 30/30 Winchester or a Model 30S in 30 Rem, or 25 Remington.

Just got the gun today. I like the scope but it weighs a ton so going to go with something lighter on top. Rifle feels good with the scope off. Rifling looks sharp and not shot much. The stock is bedded nicely. Need to see how accurate it is now. I like it
