Not laughable, logical. If you have two different specifications, it's only reasonable one will be more stringent than the other. I didn't even make a guess as to which one was more or less so, just made an observation on your assumption that "their specifications" are different than Howas.
Not my assumption.
That's Weatherbys claim, not mine.
Specs can mean many different things like barrel lengths or metal finish.
Howa also claims sub MOA for some of their rifles. Do you believe Weatherby gave them the magic formula to do that?
Who's fooling who here? Weatherby went to Howa for a rifle, not the other way around.
Vanguards are the equivalent of Japanese Winchesters. Weatherby hasn't actually built many production rifles themselves in this country. Howa and J P Sauer provided the barreled actions for most of their production rifles, including the Mark V.
Marketing is everything.
