Nice.
No need for it, myself, though.
What's the longest shot you've got with it (in a blizzard, with a crosswind, and forgot your glasses in the truck
)?
Good luck with the sale!

Thanks Funk
The Lefty model is pretty rare.
My dad would have loved this rifle.
Furniture is nice I was told 90% condition like new
It is just too fancy for me to drag through the swamp scrub and brush where I have hunted. My beater pump carbine 30-06 does just fine for that.

I have only take mister weatherby to the range once. Fired it maybe 20 times. Nice July day , with glasses and a picnic lunch. More than adequate to put holes in paper targets at 100 yards.

Thanks Pat
It has a Pentax scope. Installed by previous owner , who never fired the gun.
I feel it has little value compared to the rifle and am basically throwing it in for free.
06 is not the smallest round you can hunt deer with
But works well when harvesting critters
There is a local FFL guy that I have used that can do paper work transfer and shipping for a nominal fee........

I got you on the scope . Should have figured if it was Leupold, Ziess etc yudda said. I have good luck buying my scopes used, older Redfields and a old Burris. Got a old remington model 6 w/ burris in 06 added syn. stock as my deer gun. Shoots better then me. Reload 165 grain soft points and they just drop.

and sundry heart valves
He used it 4 blue printing for Gov't Israel
to design a prototype
sniper rifle
never came to be
But something I was able to trade 2
super rare shot guns for LoL
