[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 750166, member: 22335"] Welcome! Yes, all Weatherby rifles in Weatherby calibers have longer freebore. This is not necessarily a bad thing either. The down side to rebarreling with a shorter freebore is that a future owner of the rifle may not realize this, shoot factory ammo, and have dangerously high pressures. Generally the Weatherby rifles will shoot just fine with their freebore. I would shoot it and see how we'll it shoots before contemplating anything else. [/QUOTE]
