300 Weatherby info

[derickd]

I'm looking at trading for this gun locally and I know nothing about Weatherby can I get some help on what it is and what's it worth mark v stainless thanks for the info

 

[Dr. Vette]

Looks like a Mark V stainless that someone put in a Bell & Carlson stock.

Nothing wrong with it, as we have some in the same configuration.
I'd bed the action and tune the trigger, and it probably will shoot very well.

What's it's worth

 

[derickd]

They said it's all factory I'm not sure

 

[Dr. Vette]

That would be uncommon, but Weatherby did some uncommon things with a few special models for distributors.

If it's from the factory, the stock will likely have aluminum blocks only at the action screws. If the B&C was added later, then it will have a full action bedding block. You usually have to remove the stock to see the difference between the two.

Any other photos?

I had one just like that it that I sent to scorehi in New Mexico that added the BC exact stock, tapped the scope mounts to the larger M700 screws , it shoots amazing! I was offered a good price for a friend that wanted it so he has it now and it's still shooting 215hybrids into 1/2 groups. He is an outfitter and the rifle gets used by different clients that come with rifles that can't shoot long distance confidently.

My serial was SS006214

 

[derickd]

What would you say it's worth said been shot no more than 40 times

 

[Can2Juan]

It's a decent deal under 1200.00, they probably want 1500-1700, but Dr Vette knows more! He's answered my questions in the past .

 

[derickd]

Awesome thank you

 

[Dr. Vette]

If you watch, stainless Mark V rifles on GB are available for $850-1000, often advertised for more but don't sell too fast. With low usage you can think $1000. Of course, you then add shipping and transfer fee if you buy on GB. You get to avoid that if it's local.
If it's a factory stock add $150-ish. A new B&C is about $300 but once installed on a rifle is more like a $200-250 addition.

Any box or papers?
