I am going to buy a .223 Rem compact very soon. My gun shop has a Ruger Ranch in .223 rem and a Weatherby Vanguard compact. Most think the Weatherby is a better gun. Can the barrel be replaced on both? Some say they are pressed on and when the barrel is shot, that is it. I like both. Te Weatherby is $620 and the Ruger is $535. What gun is better , and why?
