[QUOTE="trebark, post: 490469, member: 19172"] Lots of factors go into your decision like budget and game you intend to hunt. So I will make some assumptions...that you intend to keep the expenditure low and that you intend to hunt deer size game to 900 yards. From these assumptions, here's a couple of ideas on an escalating $$ scale.... 1. 'accurize' your current 300wby. This means, new stock, bed action into stock, tune trigger, recrown barrel. 2. 'light custom'. Do the same as #1 but add custom barrel, this would also allow you to choose whatever cartridge you wanted including the 300RUM. 3. Although it might not be the most expensive, the next option would be to buy the sendero and sell the weatherby. Even tougher decisions than these will be choosing the components you want as this will bring other variables into the process like hunting style, but that's another conversation all together.
