personally unless it was a big game african rifle, I'm no longer much of a fan of wood stocked rifles, or shiny barrels, glossy stocks, I'm sure at 300yds an elk won't notice it, but just a preference I suppose.
Certainly a solid setup though, 300wby in a quality rifle, with a quality scope.
those 56mm scopes are huge, certainly bright though.
Have you bought it yet? is this a new rifle? used? you know you can customize many weatherby rifles, such as stock colors/finishes, same with barrel finishes, all from the factory, something to consider.
Also for that price you could build a decent custom I believe, something also to consider.
Any quality rifle, in a quality cartridge that'll be around down the road, with a quality scope certainly would be a great heirloom though.
