RE: Looking For Good Rifle
Everyone has their complaints about one rifle or another. It's up to you what you consider the details you need in a rifle. The one comment I have is if you're set on a Mark V then buy it. I would look to the Mark V Fibermark synthetic and not the Mark V synthetic. The Fibermark will cost more but you get a true fiberglass reinforced stock and not a plastic injection molding. Other than that everthing else is the same. If you buy the synthetic & don't like the stock you will end up spending more to put a quality aftermarket stock on it. The Weatherby will come with an accuracy guarantee so I don't think you will really get a lemon.
I do agree with most others. The amount you will spend on a Weatherby I would rather spend on a Sako.
