Having owned a couple Weatherby chambered rifles (Win 70s in 240 and 257) I'd say buy it for the rifle, not the chambering. Weatherby ammo and components are expensive and hard to find, there are better cartridge options out there now, like the 6.8 Western, 270 WSM, 7mm SAUM, 280 AI, 7mm PRC and 7mm RM. Good luck!
No argument there. I've got others that are more "practical". For me, this is sort of like buying an old corvette.
It's an itch I gotta scratch. May not be the best addiction but it sure beats meth!
