You have the MK V lightweight which is chambered in std calibers as well as the 240 wthby and after looking at the weatherby website they indeed list it as 1057 which Is way high for a list price much higher then a Remington,Winchester type gun . The price you paid is right in line with what I paid for mine 3 years ago though in fact it may be a couple of bucks lower. I bought a 270win model and had problems with the bolt operation almost immediately and finally returned it to Weatherby who replaced the gun with a 280 as per my request. No problems with the 280 and Weatherbys CS is top notch very very good. In defense of the rifle it was one of the first to hit our area and the price was attractive thats why I bought it. The 270 and 280 were very accurate rifles and I find the barrellled action incredibly light and attractive which bedded in a lightweight fiberglass stock would be a super mountain rifle with a 24" tube. You'll have to get special bases for it since the reciever is a smaller diameter then the fullsize MK V. YOu bought a good gun and weatherby will back it up . The std magnums(7rem 300 win 338) and std regular caliber(270win,06,280) Weatherbys shoot extremely well it is a little known secret and probably caused by lack of the freebore the Big weatherbies have. Good Luck
