[QUOTE="Timothey101, post: 2869837, member: 127306"] Hi, I’m new to the forum and need some assistance if anyone is familiar with Weatherby rifles; I am not, but am learning. I recently acquired my first Weatherby rifle and am looking for info about it. It is a Weatherby .224 Magnum Varmitmaster bolt action rifle with a 24” barrel. It has “Made in W. Germany” stamped on the barrel near the receiver and has a unique serial number. Per the Weatherby website all of the first production .224 caliber rifles, which started in 1963 have serial numbers all starting with an “S” prefix, but this one has no prefix (1116). It is in gorgeous condition and appears to have never been fired or at least very little. It also came with two boxes of original ammo and the original scope mounts are in tact. Could this possibly be a pre-production or prototype? I have attached some pictures of it for your review and a picture of a note from the original owner, a soldier who was stationed in Germany in the early 1960s. Thanks in advance for any ideas or commentary. [/QUOTE]
