Hadn't planned on it, but picked one up off the Fire while on a road trip. Will make a good back up rifle to the AI. Now that it has a new Zeiss on it, the FX3 with CDS went on this. Just have to see how well it shoots.

I had one for awhile and really liked it. I really like the way weatherby does things, they make an affordable version of all the high end stuff they make. Don’t want to spend 3k on a mkv dangerous game rifle, there’s the vanguard dangerous game rifle. Can’t afford an accumark, get an accuguard. Can’t affor an ultra lightweight, get a back country.

Mine was a 300wby and was an absolute tack driver

Would grab one in a heartbeat if they offered it with a striaightcomb stock. The Weatherby Monte Carlo doesn’t work for me.

I don't like the stocks, but they fit well. I'm getting less persnickety about stuff it seems.

What's it weigh?

Good looking rifle Tony... Those 87's?

Very nice looking rig, I was interested in one of these till i found out they use the thick wristed B&C stock like several gunmakers do, its a popular stock but I dont like the feel of the thick wrist....Let us know how she shoots .....Good luck 👍.....Hb

I have the original version in 257WM. Still my favorite antelope rifle. You are gonna like it.

On a cheap fishing scale, as shown roughly 7.25#



87s and one box of 100



Can't wait to find out, but will have to... leg surgery has me hobbling around for now.



Hope so. Hows AZ?

Love it. Cant imagine living anywhere else. We are both content living here.

I have the original version, all stainless, in .30-06. Very accurate. My son used it to kill his first deer.

Have any favorite loads for yours? Just picked up a box of 115 BTs. Just to try out, but mainly for the cases.

RE-22 and 110 AB or IMR 4831 and 100 TTSX. Up in Sedona for a couple days, dont have the load book with me.

Shot some 115 BT's, dont remember the powder or weight. Should be recorded tho.

I dont think anything in that gun shot over an inch. Its another one of those stupid accurate rifles.

i have the exact same rifle. mine like 110 accubonds shooting 3 into 3/4"@100yds.
good luck with her,
Big Ed

Have the exact thing in 240 Bee. Love it!

72.0 of RE-25, 115 NBT, Norma case and CCI 250, seated at 3.25, 3297 fps. Two, 3-shot groups averaged .331.

69.5 of RE-22, 110 AB, Norma case and CCI 250, seated at 3.22, 3437 fps. Very accurate in my Backcountry.

Good luck brother.
