And PS, a friggin "gagger buck" in the bottom photo! Brad - much appreciated! I need to stop messing with them and get out and hunt more. Someday I hope to post up one of my 7MM-08's propped up on a big old bull elk like some of the ones you have posted

Weatherby 6 lug MkV Stainless Carbine, 20" barrel, McMillan Sako Classic Stock ( the stock transformed the rifle), S&K Stainless mounts/rings, Zeiss Diavari Victory 2.5-10x42. Montana Sling.Favorite ammo; Barnes Vor-Tx 120TTSX. 7lbs/1oz w/o sling. Just about the perfect whitetail rifle; IMHO. Might be the best looking Weatherby I’ve ever seen.

They weren't kidding, calling that "exhibition grade", for sure it's that.
Thanks for sharing. Bet it shoots as good as it looks. Coopers usually do, although their factory targets are not shot at 100 yds, they shoot well at a hundred, IME.

Top to bottom: Rem 700 put-together with 700 Ti barrel OD Cerakote and 1st Gen Ti stock. Just bought off the classifieds. Waiting for Talley Lightweights and will wear a VX2 3-9x40 tactical. Rem 700 Gander? 700 with factory Mtn Rifle barrel and 1st Gen Ti stock. Wearing a VX3 2.5-8 with M1 elevation. 2nd Pic - hunting weight with sling and 4 rounds. Threw the Fieldcraft 7mm-08 in there for grins. Fencepost pic with Zeiss scope and Talley's I replaced with a Nightforce and pic rail and 3 shot 100 yd factory Federal 140 partition target below (it was very windy).

"Rem 700 Gander? 700 with factory Mtn Rifle barrel and 1st Gen Ti stock. "
Pretty sure the Mnt Guides had the TI barrel contour which was smaller than the standard Mnt rifle contour, at least on the few I measured.
