Weatherby Mark V Deluxe in 300 Weatherby Magnum 

I'm fairly confident that little head shake at 1:14 was that young mans way of telling you, "Nope. Not doing that a second time".

Hi Shep, I am impressed you put that many rounds through that rifle. My best friend has one and I have shot it quite a few times and I can guarantee it kicks like a mule on steroids. That is a beautiful set up with the Leupold scope. The Mark V action is excellent although it's a push feed action I wouldn't hesitate to use it as a dangerous game rifle. Anyway, I have been watching your videos for a while and share your taste in firearms. All the Best

I’ve got the same rifle, also a Japanese made model, but in 7mm weatherby. A beautiful rifle indeed.

Shep, Weatherby Mark V - true beauty in wood and steel…+ performance!!

Nice rifle

Always wanted the same gun in 300 mag. Almost made a deposit in the Bank of Boulder years ago when for your deposit you got the rifle as interest up front and your money back after a period of years. Sweet rifle, thanks for showing it.

That is a beauty! I've handled a few Weatherbys and was always impressed by the fit and finish. Thanks for sharing!!!

The best in the world folks, the best of the best MADE IN USA....

The most beautiful rifle ever created, a bit too much for me in 300 WM but I'll take the 6.5 Creedmore, yes please

Nice rifle with bland wood. WBY rifles are magnificent. Scope BTW is pronounced Leupold, i.e "loopold" not 'leopold.'

A powerhouse!

Wow ,yes that is an absolutely gorgeous ride and I'm reasonably certain in that caliber it has power to spare. Thank you for the video. :-)

The kid SHOULD BE WEARING EYE PROTECTION. EGADS!!!

You won’t develop a flinch!!!!! LOL.

Bought that same rifle yesterday. What a beautiful gun. Came with a Leupold Vari X II 3-9...it’s flawless. In case you were wondering, I paid $1400 for it.

You might need a bit of grease on that bolt. Next time show us some target accuracy. Beautiful rifle though...

This rifle looks just like one I bought about 10 years ago, it's a South Gate Mark V in .300 Weatherby. It came with the original Weatherby scope and Bueler scope mounts, but I've replaced that scope with a Nikon 4x12x40. Great rifle and I reload for it, it'd be way too expensive to shoot factory ammo lol.

Other dude was good after the first shot

Bought a new one back in 1979 for $500. And also bought a Colt Python for $500. And a new Browning Citori shotgun for $500. Sure wish I had them all back!

I used to have a Vanguard in .300 Wby mag, and the recoil was pretty stout. Factory Wby ammo wasn't cheap, either. I kept it for a while and ended up selling it about 10 years ago.

That dude's a fucking boss.... Could hardly tell it's was kicking like a mule

This guys rippin em

It's a beautiful rifle Shep !!

When you have to hold on to the gun for dear life....

show me your shoulder after ten hits... I shoot the 300 WBY for 30 years on a Sauer 90 and it hits like a horse we use zo say in Germany ...

Nice rifle!

You stood up to the recoil from that beast just fine, Shep. An experienced shooter's ability to roll with the punch always shows. Not often that people get to see what $2000 worth of rifle/scope looks like. btw...were those factory loads, or did you roll your own?

What are your thoughts on the Browning BBR by comparison?

Beautiful. That bad boy will kill a whitetail and field dress it for you :)

Beautiful work of art! Very, very nice rifle.

I have one of these in a lefty. Don't shoot it much, lots of recoil and expensive to shoot. Sure is pretty, though.

skinny boy flinched

want to buy sauer 202 in this caliber. But its no muzzle brake, like on yours. How bad recoil from that 300 wby?

The slide sounds somewhat sluggish loading.... kicks a lot....too.....the dudes doing the shooting had hair pieces, they'll be picking them up down the rad somewhere....jejeje Shot one many yrs ago while in Kodiak...

Very nice! Enjoyed the shooting also.

lol... The kid said no way for a second shot.

Both of them were flinching. The 300 Weatherby takes a lot of practice and concentration to shoot properly.

I found and bought the same model in like new condition in 2018 for only $1,250. It is also a Mark V in .300 Weatherby magnum. It was made by JP Sauer in Germany in 1967. .I always wanted one since 1967. I found and mounted a like new Leupold VX-2, 4 -14 X 40 scope on it. I removed the Weatherby original 4 X scope, also made in Germany. (It is for sale.) I shot just a few times, with factory 180 grain loads. Three holes touching at 100 yards. When time available, I will work up hand loads starting with IMR-7820 powder and Nosler 180 grain Accubond bullets. The barrel has a 1 : 12 inch twist, so it probably will not stabilize bullets over 180 grains. I am content because I also have a Savage Bear Hunter 116 in .338 Winchester magnum which accurately shoots 225 grain Nosler partition bullets. And I have a 7 mm STW rifle with a Hart barrel on a Remington 700 action which puts four Nosler 140 grain Ballistic Tip bullets in one hole at 100 yards. I use IMR-7820 powder for it. It was built by R. Hart.. The recoil is manageable, but I plan to have a R. Hart custom muzzle brake installed. He has built other rifles for me. Many serious hunter friends are devoted exclusive Weatherby fans.

I am 13 5 foot 11 and weigh 145 pounds and shoot a 35 whelen with a muzzle brake brake could I handle this caliber with a muzzle brake maybe with out it ?

for nearly $2000 dollars that's a mighty sticky bolt.

ปืนประจำมือของ ม.ร.ว. ดารินทร์ วราฤิทธิ์

I have the same rifle with a Leupold compact scope on it. Nothing is quite like a Weatherby. With the short(54degree) bolt throw, I have found that gripping the bolt handle with my palm down and my thumb against the back of the bolt, I can work the bolt easier and faster. You're mileage may very.

That is a beautiful rifle! And it did look like it had a fair amount of recoil. Cheers

Muzzle brake takes the kick out of it makes it fun to shoot

...there's a rifle I have always wanted...very nice!...

Expensive video, them bullets are not cheap!

Those Weatherby's are something else

I have this set up. Have never used it.

My father inlaw has one. It has been passed down through the family. Will drop a deer dead in its tracks he said. I know it hits my steel plates like a sledge hammer. Yes they are beautiful. Ive got a video of it up. Thanks for sharing yours.

Man, you're burning up some very expensive ammo there; and without any barrel cool down intervals between groups. I own five Weatherby rifles in Wby. Magnum calibers. The first thing I learned was that they can heat up a barrel like no other rifle I've ever owned. The second thing I learned was to buy a set of reloading dies when you buy a Weatherby caliber. What were you shooting at Anyway?

As someone who doesn't know rifle calibers to well I'm wondering is the 300 bigger then the 308?

Beautiful

that thing belongs in The Louvre....such is its beauty!!!!

Beautiful rifle Shep, nothing like a fine Weatherby

Thanks for the info...keep it up big brother.

This guy has the coolest gun collection in town. I can think of an old cool gun, type it into RU-vid and sure enough this guy got it.

aren't all your vids showing new weapons, lol! do you have to get special home insurance for all of them?

you won't believe this but i recently got this exact rifle in a trade but in 7mm magnum i traded a cz75 p07 duty and a hundred dollar bill for it same scope and all i literally didnt know it was the deluxe until i watched this video and seen all the same markings thank you for letting me know the value of the rifle i had 485 dollars invested in my pistol and this gun new runs 2400 not to mention the 600 dollar scope im super happy

what cartridge did you shoot ? (how many grains)

Looked like it rocked the young fella a bit.

What a nice gun and cartridge! Thanks for sharing!

great rifle i have fired one an owned a 224 weatherby

The .300 Wing Mag. shoots a 180 grain bullet about 3050 fps. I think the .300 Weatherby speed is more like 3250 fps.

very nice wood on it kicks pretty good.

What size groups will it shoot off a rest @ 100yds. My brother has a remington 700 synthetic stock rifle chambered in 300 weatherby. Its a great hunting rifle but not much fun to shoot LOL Nice rifle shep.

I was thinking about getting one just like this. Beautiful gun.

Shame what someone did to that scope screw. A very large flathead screwdriver was surely needed. You should have showcased the rounds next to the gun. Give people an idea of how big that cartridge really is.

You handle that Caliber/Recoil very well :) Nice hunting Rifle..

the bolt action didn't seem very smooth...almost appeared sloppy?

Very nice rifle that is a Purdy one reminds me of my X girlfriend EZ on the eyes but she kicked like a Mule Thank's Shep

Nice rifle :)

That's a good lookin' rig you got there Shep. Thanks for sharing

Beautiful Rifle Shep!

Beautiful rifle Shep. I was wondering if the Mark V has a free floated barrel. I bought a 300 Win Mag Vanguard stainless with laminated stock a number of years ago whose barrel was not free floated. I didn't think to check it before buying it, and I was a little disappointed afterwards. Cheers!

Sweet rig! Always wanted one

I have the same exact rifle and scope. For sale too lol

Who in the hell takes an pression rifle an shoots it that way melting the barrel.....nice an bueatiful gun tho

It pisses me of every time I see some jackass lower a bolt action from the shouldered position to reload it ,Just work the bolt smartly then continue to shoot !To the shooter in this video take some advice,don't go hunting critters that may run over you or bite you ,or one with claws!!I'm not really mad keep shooting that way it makes those of us that know how look better!

When the banty rooster shot it he went back

I got a 300 why mag mark v myself. Love it. Kinda kicks. But now I shoot a 30-378 why mag!!!!!!! THE BEST ALL AROUND GUN THERE IS.

I see how recoil bothers younger people more than us big ole bucks.

Older gentleman managed it better than young lad

Nice rifle, thank you! It isn't the best deal for the $2000-$2500 though. For this price you can buy a superb European rifle such as Steyr Mannlicher Classic and SM 12.

Put a limb saver it and save your shoulder some abuse.

how's the shoulder holding up?.😏looks like a power house to handle.

Let’s be completely honest ..... The recoil on that gun makes it completely unpleasant to fire .. It has so much recoil I won’t even let my older sons shoot mine .. I’ve personally toyed with the idea of having the barrel turned for a muzzle break in hopes of making it a more tame gun to shoot .
