I checked the Weatherby web site and yes you are right it says one piece forged bolt. Maybe my memory of which manufacturer I was told had problems with rocks and bolt handles was wrong. Maybe Weatherby changed it's manufacutring process due to problems with the bolt handle. Honestly I'm not sure. I do remember being told by someone who smithed there for years that a barely used Weatherby was the most common tip given because of constant problems, and the most common used for sale.

I know I can't change your mind. I'm sure many hunters never had any problems with their Weatherby.

Arguably though, Holland&Holland, Purdy, and Westley Richards are three of the best gunmakers in the world. What bolt action do they use? None have chosen, to my knowledge, to use a push feed design in safari rifles they sell. I could be mistaken....
