I have loaded for three different Weatherby rifle's over the years. I found all three chamber's to be "generously" cut. I have always found the heavy bullet for caliber will shoot better, IMO this is due to the free-bore. IMO the larger bullet has less jump. As stated earlier about runout. IMO runout is very important in Wbys. I do not think that neck turning can help a Wby. rifle. I would spend my time on runout, and possibly even trying a 220 grain bullet, for even less jump. I shot my 7mm Wby. with a 175 grain Sierra touching the lands. I had to shoot it single shot only(shells were too long for magazine). But I do not mind shooting a rifle as a single shot.

So in summary, shoot your rifle as a single shot. Seat farther out. And spend your time on runout-not neck turning. Tom.
