Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Wyoming Weatherby mk v

Yes it would.

Few years ago I bought a brand new weatherby 6 lug walnut stocked 2016 commerative. The first time I took it to the range after firing the first 3 shots the group was way larger than it should be. Started checking things over, noticed the stock was cracked in front of and behind the front action screw to the magazine cutout and about 3" up into the forend. Took it home took pictures, called Weatherby, long story short got totally brushed off by Weatherby. Ended up repair the rifle myself. It is highly unlikely I'll buy another Weatherby after the disappointment of dealing with them. I realize this is Canada and the market is pretty small but if they don't want to stand behind brand spanking new defective product that people pay top dollar for then don't sell up here. I've had far superior service from Kimber here.

I bought a 6 lug Hunter model last year. So far, so good. I like it very much.

Coyote, I handled a Weathermark and I fell in love with it. Very lite and shouldered well. Looking at the web site they discontinued it and replaced it with the Live Wild series. It looks good. I’m a sucker but have thought a new rifle until listening to their podcast and sounds like they are doing good stuff in Wyoming and changed my mind about a new rifle. I always said I wanted a Deluxe in 257 when I retire but I need one now. Lol

I've been seriously thinking about a weathermark in 6.5 rpm or 240. They are pretty dang close to the perfect hunting rifle. I've always been able to shoot those rifles well. I like the stock design.

22lr in mkxxii
240 in badlands light weight 1:7.5 rpm limited production
257 ultra lightweight
6.5 RPM titanium 2.0
6.5-300 accumark 2
7mm euromark
300 deluxe
30-378 krieger custom rifle
338 rpm accumark 6 lug
340 weathermark
338-378 accumark 1
378 lazermark
416 classicmark 2
460 classicmark 1

All are mkv's. All shoot close to 1/2 " with my loads some less than that

I bet that Kreiger 30-378 is a blast. I almost bought one, then decided on a plain accu.ark in 6.5x300.

It is phenomenal

Nice group.
When is your shoulder surgery ?

Kicks like a 7mm mag. The only one that gave me an issue was an older Japanese 378 wby with no brake. That one I had to be extra conscious when shooting it.

That nx8 is a nice touch too.
Those kreiger customs are a step up for sure!

That's what I have. Yes - it's a fun one, but made for a lot of work for a couple days (shot a 3×4 muley later the same day)

That is a very nice collection! The more I read, the poorer I feel! I only have a few rifles, but live them all. Thanks for sharing Fotis, and JGray, nice bull! Love a nice trophy and a walnut rifle pic. They go very well together.

My 6 lug Accumark shoots great.

Had you run any factory stuff through it? Curious if that's just one great load, or if it shoots everything pretty well.

That’s definitely a shooter, Fotis.

Very nice shooting, Fotis !
Good looking stock on the 338 RPM, I wonder who makes those stocks ?

The ones made in Sheridan Wyoming all have criterion barrels on them never had a bad shooter.

Have you weighed the stock? Curious about it vs an Edge fill McM.

That 338 rpm would be awesome.
