[QUOTE="WildBillG, post: 1501083, member: 106952"] CanHunter I am not sure but I believe it is. I bought it brand new in in the early 90's and likely would would not have bought my 338 Win Mag had I bought the Weatherby first. The fact that it matched the 338 for muzzle energy and shoots so much flatter just floored me. Now that I know it shoots those TTSX Barnes at 3246 really stuns me. As I was really expecting to maybe get 3150 if I was lucky. I know it is only 100fps but the 300 Win gets 3100 with 180's. I feel better knowing that the 10 extra grains of powder is dping some good. WildRose you mentioned Remington I picked up a 257Bee in a Rem 700 and it smokes 100gr TSX out at 3600fps so I was happy there too. Both of these guns shoot way better then what I thought Weatherby cartridges could. I know both have some freebore but not sure how much but now really don't care. When a gun shoots like these 2 do it just over rides everything else pretty much. Although these velocities are a real bonus in my book. [/QUOTE]
