I have owned two weatherby mark 5' s and was disappointed with both of them.Neither was any more accurate than my factory 700' s and some of the 700' s were quite a bit more accurate.The accuracy guarantee of 1-1/2" groups is ridiculous as I have never owned a gun that would would not shoot at least that well and many cost much less than the weatherbies.I now have guns built for me that cost a little more than a weatherby but they shoot honest 1/2" groups and they are much better made.I don' t mind spending money on my rifles but they have to deliver more to be worth the extra cost.To me the weatherby' s didn' t deliver.
