[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2460739, member: 10755"] The reason the 7mm Weatherby lacks popularity is mainly 2 reasons. Firstly, other than Weatherby, very few manufacturers chamber it, and, secondly the fact that only Weatherby make ammo for it. I have owned ONE Weatherby rifle, have owned several Weatherby cartridges that were all custom in differing actions, Model 70’s, Rem 700’s and Kimber’s. Much prefer those rifles to a Weatherby. I still think the 7mm Weatherby is great….just like the 257 and 270 variants, but honestly, I think all the one’s I have owned are great too, 300, 340 and 375. The only one’s I haven’t owned are the 378, 416 or 460, just no need for a 5-6000 dollar rifle just for the cartridge. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
