I was lusting for a 7mm STW after reading Mr. Simpson’s articles and found a beater 7mm Weatherby at Marks Outdoors in Vestavia Hills, AL annual Sanford & Son gun sale to rechamber to STW. I thought I should shoot it to check the barrel before spending money on it. It shot great and factory ballistics were listed just a fuzz less than the STW. I took it to a well known gunsmith in Lynwood, WA and he was very opinionated against building STW rifles, so I scrapped the project and went on to kill several deer and elk with the MK V. I still have it and even acquired a second one. Three more Weatherby’s later, the saga continued…
