I had a Weatherby in 7mm Wtby Mag with Leopold Vari X III. As stated not a tack driver but I had no problems with it. I gave it to my son-in-law and it has been his deer rifle for a long time and shows outer wear, that bright Weatherby bluing now long dulled. He has taken a number of deer with it, and some nearing 200 yards. Except for the pricey ammunition it performs well. I do still load for it to give some trigger time without the $3.50 a shot. Not hard to load for and a host of fine 7mm bullets on the market now. His attitude is like many, a rifle is a rifle and as long as it performs, out to the woods it will go.
