[QUOTE="Dosh, post: 1855535, member: 70363"] The biggest difference between the German and all other origins is the vintage German barrels are 1:12 twist. For hunting, the 1:12 is accurate with a bit lighter bullet. A hunting partner of mine has a German made MK V 300 Wby which shoots sub MOA out to 500 with lighter bullets. Only visual inspection could narrow the value estimate along with upgrades and embellishments. Try the forum Weatherby Nation, they are quite helpful. Good luck [/QUOTE]
