Default RE: Weatherby Mark V Rifles

I think they started making them in the US when they contracted Remington to make the A-5's in the 40s and maybe 50s. I hope this guy didn't mean the Belguim brownings.

I have owned MarkV in a weatherby. Good looking gun and shot ok for a freebored round. But sold to build a custom. I do like the MarkV 3 lug design. I just can't figure how they justify the price. I paid over 1100 dollars 8 years ago for this fluted monster with a muzzlebreak. I had a heck of a rifle built for 1200 dollars. Had a 700 action, krieger barrel, timney trigger, and H-S stock.
