I have acquired an older Mark V in 300 Weatherby. It is made in Germany. I know that production was move to Japan in the 70's and then to the US in the 80's. Which of these makers are the best. What should I look out for with this early Mark V
The scope and mount look as ould as the gun. Currently the scope rings have the elevation and windage adjustments on them. What rings would be the best for this platform. I am looking at a Nikon Monarch or the Weaver Grand slam but I still need to go to the local gun shop and look at them.
What would be a good hunting load for CA deer. We don't get the biggest deer out here. Can any one refer me to an online dealer for shells.
I know that the 300 Weatherby will be a little much for deer but this is my only hunting rifle and I got it for a song from a friend. A guy an his work found it when his father passed away. His wife did not want it in the house. It has found a new home in my safe.
In the future I would like to get a 6mm, 25-06, 257 Roberts, or .243 that I can use for deer and Varmiting but not for a while. Which would you choose for this role?
I know that is a few questions. Thanks
