I searched for this topic here to no avail, I am going to buy a Weatherby rifle but wanted to know if anyone has any additional info on the two types that they offer. The Sub MOA vanguardrifle seems to be the logical choice, for economy*, but is there any reason to pay for the Mark V?
* economy of scale, it is a weatherby!
The Vanguard is not a guaranteed sub MOA according to their website.
