[QUOTE="NeedForSpeed, post: 1681401, member: 108307"] I like Weatherby rifles and have several older ones. They have history and are very pretty wood rifles. The Weatherby rifles run with high pressures so they have a " jump" from the ojive to the lands. From what Ive read that introduces some inaccuracy and most people are trying to get the ojive within 20 thousands of the lands to improve alignment and accuracy. Finding a good gunsmith in Florida is challenging-Guys here shoot pistols and ARs mostly. My buddy had his 300 Braked but it still kicked pretty good, but possibly the brake used wasnt the best choice. Knowing that and considering the cost of installing a brake I figured I'd just get a round and rifle that was more "user friendly" and sell the Weatherby 300 Magnum [/QUOTE]
