I bought a synthetic stocked .223 Weatherby2 in what I thought was SS but it is some sort of silver Cerakote. It has a Zeiss Conquest 3.5X10 and shoots and handles very well. Sub minute with 62 grain handloads using BarnesTSX or Hornady HPBT bullets that used interchangeably are pretty close to same POI. Is a fine varmint rifle with these loads using Varget and has taken some pretty fair hogs on 200 yard shots. I've owned a couple of Savage 16 SS Weather Warriors that shot very accurately. Not sure if they come in .223.


Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
