There is a ULW 6.5-300 at my LGS that is brand spanking new in the box on consignment(estate sale). It has the thread protector instead of a brake which can't be found anywhere. I am probably going to buy it in the next few days because it is priced that low. I spoke to Weatherby today concerning their ammo and was surprised to find out they are making ammo in house now. This will be a Handloading proposition.
That is what Weatherby told me as well. The rep. said this spring they expect to have Weatherby ammo more available - just not sure what "more available" really means. I agree the high octane Weatherby chamberings are handloading propositions but whether handloads or factory loads it is pretty cool to shoot at distances that you need to drive the truck to - didn't say I was good at it but sure is fun.
