Weatherby freebore

[njshooter]

If I purchase a rifle in a Weatherby Mag. caliber but it made by another company say, "H-S Precision" would it have the same amount of freebore as the Weatherby made rifle?

Unless someone here knows the specific reamer spec for your rifle.....

The best thing to do is measure it. Hornady OAL comparator.

NJ, you could also e-mail the manufacturer with the rifle info and serial#. Most will answer you within a couple days.

Non freebore Weatherbys don't seem to do anything special and they have less velocity as well as you can only use handloads, factory ammo will not work.
