    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Dick after learning the bolt face issue i will hsve with the WSM cartridge I think I'm gonna go with the 7mm Rem. Mag. Still haven't heard back from my smith so I'm in limbo on the project.

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Mike thanks thought the bolt face would be good guess I missed it by a few thousandths. So guess its back to the 7RM to 300WM argument....to the research mobile! Cobalt those are some good looking toys other than the kaleidoscope color stocks. I've got...

    Weatherby Magnum action options

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Looks like I should be ok on fhe bolt face. Extractor may be a different issue. I'm pretty set on the 7 Wsm the 338 is an awedome projectile, but you gotta pay big to play that game. There was a guy on another forum wirh a 26" Brux barrel shooting sub...

    Weatherby Magnum action options

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Its one of the non desirable synthetic stocks and to my knowledge isnt a rare older model. I haven't ran the numbers to see exactly when she was made though.. I've tried selling this rifle at a few gun shops and the best I was offered was 3-400 and that...

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Got emails out to a few companies hopefully they'll get back to me soon. May spring for the B&C A5 look alike just for kicks. Probably going with the 7wsm its available at the local gun store and at most places near where I hunt. I was thknking of having...

    Weatherby Magnum action options

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Judging from the quick internet searches it looks like 7WSM might be what I'm looking for. However there is more factory ammo available for the 7RM, but reloading the WSM might be more cost effectice due to the better efficiency of the case. Is there any...

    Weatherby Magnum action options

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Wouldn't be a bad idea a lot of pills out there for the 6.5 and I already have a stash of once fired brass, but absolutely no factory ammo available though. So much for a light budget, this is going to wind up being all custom parts any way I go. Still...

    Weatherby Magnum action options

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Readily available factory match/hunting rounds would be nice until I get all the reloading dies and such for the caliber. The 300 WinMag is semi common in Texas which would be a plus. Didn't know McMillan made a stock for the Mark V I'll have to...

    Weatherby Magnum action options

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Was yours a magnum long action or the standard long action? I haven't started handloading for this rifle yet. Been using factory ammo so far. What calibers can I move to with this action and bolt face besides a 300 Wby Mag?

    Weatherby Magnum action options

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options The first two to three shots generally just about 1.25-1.5 inches (@100yds), after the fourth round all bests are off. I know this is enherant of the cartridge to super heat the barrel, but this thing will open up to 4"+ groups. Work done so far had one...

    Weatherby Magnum action options

    I have a Mark V chambered in 270 WBY MAG I've never been happy with the accuracy of this rifle, although it has taken several deer in its career. I would like to turn this gun into a range toy with the side effect of making a good hunting rifle. What are my options I have to rebarrel this...
