375 H&H rules! I have killed a bazillion gophers with one. Great off season practice. The 458 has flattened a few as well. Overkill, maybe. Fun? Definitely. Moose, bear and elk fall down when they go bang.

Have had a pile of them. They are a great rifle. Too bad that they discontinued a bunch of the calibers that they were once offered in. Classy, handle well and most of them shoot extremely well.

Way to go, Guy. I am in the same boat. I have enough Hornady, Speer and Noslers to last me the rest of my days and then some. Kinda like going into a candy store. So many choices.

No hunter is complete without the 270 Bee. Congrats.

Lasermark 270 Weatherby anchors them where they stand. Last falls was 372 yards and dropped like a rock. Bullet was 140 grain Hornady boattail launched with a heavy charge of Reloader 22 and WLRM primer.

A 6.5 06 and/or a 35 Whelen would fill the niche just fine. A 45 70 would complete the list.

Weatherby and Lazeroni meet or exceed published velocities. Remington and Winchester factory loads are hyped 100 to 200 fps. I have never had a Winchester or Remington factory load meet the published speed that they advertise. Welcome to the Hyper velocity club. Weatherbys rule!

If it shoots as good as it looks, you have a keeper. Good call on the 190's. I prefer 200's, but that's me.

I have some Reloader 22 that I'd give you, but the border causes problems. Sticking with the IMR 7828. Much better for my toys. If we are joining the lower 48, I'm in.

You will find them extremely accurate. I shot a truckload of deer and yotes with them. Keep the shots behind the shoulder, and the deer will be DRT. Don't hit anything that you plan on eating and stay away from heavier bone. I know that they will not penetrate the sternum on a large whitetail...

Beautiful! You will definately enjoy it. I'm jealous!

I sold my Winchester 71 deluxe a few years ago to a friend. :cry: He had to have it. It was accurate, and flattened everything that it was pointed at. I found it to be very pleasant to shoot. He turned around and sold it to someone else, as he said that it kicked the crap outta him. Grab one if...

I have shot a load of deer with both the 100 and 120 grain. They both drop them drt. I load 120 grain Speer and they work fine for elk and moose. The 25 06 prefers to be loaded warm, and is very versitile.

Nice find, Fotis. As for it being the last one, I don't believe it! There is always room for one more Weatherby!

Congrats on the elk!

Buddy uses IMR 7828 in his for all bullet weights, and it shines. I use it in the 270 mag as well.

Nice shooting. Almost minute of gopher! How does it do with the partitions?

They had one of them hanging up in the feed mill. I was told that it used 1/2 pound of powder and 2 pounds of shot and was fired with a #4 blasting cap. Would be great for removing a field of unwanted gophers.

Fotis, you definately need that! I would love to have it myself. Nothing better to stop a charging gopher.

That is very nice! Love the caliber and the workmanship. Congrats.
