[QUOTE="MAGA, post: 1465054, member: 102121"] They're nice rifles. I handled a Hell's Canyon Speed and Weatherby Mark V side-by-side, both chambered in 30-06. The HC was priced around around $1k, while the Weatherby was $1699. The HC was miles ahead of the Weatherby IMO. HC had smoother action, lighter, stock was plenty stiff (unlike a lot of plastic rifle stocks), finish was top notch, and the trigger was great, would be just as good as my Sako and Winchester M70 triggers with only minor tweaking and adjusting. It broke clean everytime with basically no creep. Assuming the accuracy is there, I'd have no problems owning a Hell's Canyon. Now, the Weatherby was the exact opposite of the HC. Heavier, bolt was a lot rougher to operate, and the trigger was absolutely awful for the price. Fair amount of creep and it didn't break clean. Just my two cents. [/QUOTE]
