    NEW 300 Weatherby Vanguard for $300 WooHOO!

    guy said retail was $450 but clearance at $350 I asked for a discount because it looked like it had cosmetic damage on the bolt...turned out to just be the plastic they dipped it in for shipping. They gave me an extra $50 off :) Like I said I know it was below cost just didn't know quite how...

    Which 45-70 lever action?

    I've got the cowboy with the Octagon Barrel. I believe it's a 9 shot. That is the primary reason I got it, well that and the VERY long barrel. Glad I didn't get the guide gun. Love the look and the barrel length!

    Can someone please Identify this gun for me?

    he had it almost 30 years and has never fired it. What year were all the conversions started? Could I take a 8mm or 30-06 brass and strike the primer again or even a fresh one to see where it hit to determine? 8mm was slightly larger wasn't it? Forgot to say thank you as well.

    300 Weatherby Mag

    I'm mostly a big bore shooter. But what I don't have is a long range flat shooter in a bolt action. Well that being said I don't have any bolt actions at all. All of my rifles are autos. I wanted the most durable best shooter for the money. I hunt hog, deer, etc. and wanted something to take...

    All day carry with a belly I carry a full sized Springfield 1911 all day everyday with 2 spare single stack mags. I chose an IWB Milt Sparks VM2 in Horsehide and Sharkskin with a matching belt. I've carried all day every day for 10 years and it still looks like it's brand new! Worth...

    300 Weatherby Mag

    Sorry for the new user stuff...it seems that my account had been deleted. I haven't been on here in a very long time... Anyhow, narrowed it down between the Weatherby Vanguard s2, Vanguard Deluxe, and the Browning A-Bolt. They are all fairly close in price. The Deluxe is about $400 more...
