Keep the Vanguard. The 308 will do anything the 7MM-08 will do and more. Also, 308 ammo is available just about everywhere they sale ammo. The selection of loads is enormous.

I would keep the Weatherby because you stated that it gets good groupings with factory ammo. Plus that round can be found just about anywhere.

I saw a program one time where a Hunter could not bring his handloaded ammo across the border. He had to find some factory rounds that did shoot as well and ended up borrowing another hunter's rifle.

Looks like the Weatherby stays! Anyway everytime I use a different rifle I get a good Buck. It happenend in 2000-8point 2002 9 point and 2004 8point. So maybe I'll use a new rifle every year and see what happens.Either that or just skip the odd years.

There's your answer! Sell 'em both and buy a new Rem 700 Classic in .308! Then next year sell the 700 .308 to me and buy another new gun.

Love those Classics.

Don't mind me, when it comes to guns, I'm insane.
