Very nice looking rifle..

 

[Guy Miner]

Very nice. Glad they chambered it in the .257 Weatherby...

 

[DrMike]

Quite handsome. I concur that the choice of chambering is precisely what it should have been.

 

[Dr. Vette]

MSRP is a bit... salty. :shock:
I think I'd rather order a full on Weatherby Custom for the same price or less.

Wait until Fotis spots this!! :mrgreen:

Very nice rifle in a great chambering.

Yeah, pricey; but that is what it costs to pick up a collectible. I'm more into shooting than collecting, so there would be no likelihood that I'd ever buy such a thing. Still, it is right purdy.

 

[Rigbymauser]

I still dream about a .340 Euromark.

[FOTIS]

Here she is

 

[Guy Miner]

Fotis, you really don't need anything else for elk & smaller... That Fibermark is all business!

 

[FOTIS]

That is the problem Guy! :mrgreen: Too many bees and when the time comes I do not know what to choose.

How collectible?

I'd be somewhat more interested at 75, a LOT more interested at 100th Anniversary.
Even then...

The Weatherby collectibles of the past remind me a fair amount of the dozens of Winchester Model 94 collectibles. The long term appreciation just isn't there. As with cars, very few that are called collectible on Day 1 are collectible still on Day 2 other than some Ferraris. The recent Ford GT is the only example I can think of that held its value and increased from Day 1 onward.

Special Edition? Yes. Collectible? I'll let the 70 new owners decide.

 

[Guy Miner]

I'd destroy the collectors value by hunting with it...

Holy maccaroni :shock: ...you have a "beehive" :mrgreen:

It should have been in 6.5 Weatherby. I'd bee all over that! "Anniversary model launches new caliber ..."

That's a thought.
