My Mother Camilla Weatherby always said “You get what you pay for.” With me, for style and hit-like-a-ton-of-bricks performance on the world’s toughest animals, you get it all. A French AAA-Fancy Walnut Monte Carlo stock for example, with Ebony caps at the forend and pistol grip. My hand-cut Fluer-de-lis checkering will delight your hands with its elegance and sure grip. A Damascened bolt and engraved “Safari Custom” floorplate add even more class. As for the ton-of-bricks part? Well, that’s what happens at the business end of my muzzle as Weatherby Magnum muscle departs for yet another safari success.

Weatherby WERE THE FIRST manufacturer to offer Sub MOA out of the box accuracy on their standard range. The MARK V went out at half that!
