"But then, there is the "progressive" class ... that aimless mass of Western humanity so burdened by cultural self-loathing that it is to Islam, as ungulates are to lions."
I love wood stocks. Most shooters go for synthetic nowadays, which makes sense; but I just can't fall in love with plastic. I traded my 700 BDL in 30-06 for the Mark V in 300 Win Mag in the pic. I'll find out today how well it shoots.
Although, I do have something wrong in my head I think ... sighting in a rifle in -15 C .
Looks like my old P&H .303. I could manage a 3 inch group at 250 yards with it. (prone position, and handloads) Knocked down a few moose, deer, and coyotes with it.
Wood stocks nowadays can be a real problem, but with a Weatherby I doubt they use anything but top grade wood. I've heard of shooters buying wood stock Remingtons and Kimbers,and they weren't happy with the quality of the stock., some even warped.
I bought a cheap 30-06 a few years back, with a synthetic stock, hated it,kicked like a mule. What's the scope, Leupold,Zeiss,or Swarovski?
Nothing special for a scope for now. It's a Bushnell Elite series 3.5 x 12 with parallax adjustment. By next fall I'll have a Gold Ring VX-7 on ... or some other similar Leupold. I'm partial to Leupold.

Sure looks like my old Parker Hale 30:06. Best gun I ever owned.
