Weatherby rifles cater for a certain taste. I have owned many over the years and enjoyed them. I no longer own any my tastes have changed. They are great guns warts and all.

Well said!!

Many feel that the flash of a Weatherby is a bit over the top, and many others are envious because the price point is a bit out of reach for the unwashed masses. I was sometimes a bit self conscious about that going to the hunt camp. An analogy: Many buy fast cars to “look” fast. Others buy them to “be” fast. The first group often are afraid of the recoil and can’t hit the side of a barn, but they look good doing it!!! I fall into the second camp and always saw the many merits of the Weatherbys, never mind what others felt about them. The Weatherbys should be weighed on technical mert. Nothing less and nothing more.
