Weatherby Mark V Hunter (VERY IMPRESSED)

Very Impressed with the Weatherby Mark V Hunter! This video is my first shots with it. 100 yard and 200 yard groups are impressive - even with lead-nosed hunting ammo.

There was a time when I longed for a high end Weatherby rifle. This one looks like it has great potential to be a fabulous hunting rifle.

[@raleighthomas3079]

They are out there to be found on many a ‘used’ rack, if you look. I was blessed to find a 95% Mark V Deluxe in .300 Wby. 3 yrs ago at about 30% of what a brand new one costs now.

[@tomcurran8470]

The original ones had very fancy stocks. I have a catalog from the 70s with photos of Roy Weatherby and John Wayne, the Shah of Iran, et al.

[@mohsenraghian210]

Very nice setup! Excellent shooting! Phenomenal groups at 200 yards and 100 yards! Very impressed with the Normal ammo also! They seem to have there loads dialed in!🇺🇲✝️🇺🇲

[@eltomas3634]

Looks like you got yourself fine shooting combo! Congrats! When you got a good grip that fits your hand, pillar bedding, and a high quality trigger, all that adds up to flinging some nice tight groups. A nice rifle and scope combo is essential, obviously, but those extra bells and whistles gives you the edge on accuracy. Those TRIGGERTECH triggers are definitely worth the price, I like them a lot.

[@WHOTEEWHO]

LOVE the teigger

[@shanevonharten3100]

First 40 to 60 rounds in a new rifle are just getting comfortable with it and fine tuning. That will be a very accurate set up. 👍🇦🇺🇺🇸👍

[@phild9813]

That’s kind of what I was thinking. This thing is liable to tighten up and get more consistent still.

[@phild9813]

On top of that, if those lead tips get deformed at all, it could cause bigger groups. Goes to show the quality of that Norma for the price, and the quality of that Weatherby.

[@scotteger6271]

I haven’t gotten phenomenal accuracy out of the Norma Whitetail ammo…definitely acceptable for hunting ammo but it’s what one would expect for lead nose stuff. For a similar price I’ve been really happy with the Sig Sauer hunting ammo…very accurate stuff

[@swishswish386]

Very hard to beat a Weatherby … Great vid, great shooting 👍

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Agreed

[@raleighthomas3079]

Great video, awesome rifle! I have a Mark V Deluxe in .300 Wby., great wood, free floated, epoxy bedded, 3.5 lb trigger, perfect stock fit and Decellerator pad. Leupold 30mm 3x9 VXR scope. Sub. 1” groups all day with Federal Premium and anything Weatherby brand. Weatherby ammo is loaded by Norma, hot premium stuff. The standard basic cheap round is that Norma Softpoint you used, the 180 gr. groups 3/4” in my .300. Same with Barnes TTSX in the Select grade. More people should give Norma ammo a try, great stuff for reasonable $$.

[@coreymoyers]

I shot some Norma Evo strike last week and the groups were the best I've ever had. I like to try a lot of different stuff and compare the results like you do. It worked great in several rifles too. It’s my new favorite ammo brand for sure.

[@frankpryor4839]

Weatherby runs as smooth as glass, that's really a nice looking bolt design there 👍

[@garyscheer8017]

I've been looking at the hunter chambered for 30-06 this video has convinced me to go for it

[@bobhamilton7472]

Nice shooting. Most brand new barrels need a few shots to smooth out machining roughness. My 300 Wby groups started shrinking down markedly after about 40 rounds. Congratulations. Wonderful rifle!

[@austinburnette9295]

The precision on the threaded barrel is crazy

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Absolutely

[@williamnull428]

I know it's harder to do know, but if you can find different ammo .you will find one that your riffle really likes and is consistent with. And getting all the bugs out of a new gun. Keep on shooting.

[@matttyreeoutdoors]

I only own one Weatherby gun. It's a regular Mark V with a stainless steel fluted barrel chambered in 300 Weatherby mag. I won it years ago from a raffle and I've never shot it, but I'm planning on getting a scope put on it this spring to take it bear hunting next fall

[@fj400007]

The .300 weatherby is a beast and the mark v is as accurate as it gets, you've got a awesome gun.

[@richardbruyere9523]

Be prepared for significant recoil. It's called "Evil Roy" for good reason. Put a break on it. It is a lightning round though if you need to reach out and touch something.

[@bradenstuart4074]

Weatherby for the win!! Love their quality even their cheaper models have amazing accuracy! Always great seeing WTW slang bullets down range in a beautiful Weatherby.

[@56AJA]

very impressive I'm very impressed with 6 5 Creedmoor that ammunition and Weatherby mark V is fantastic

Hey Who Tee! I promised to update you when I got my Hunter in 7MM Weatherby. Broke it in cleaning after every second shot up to about 10 rounds and managed a three shot inch group at 100 yards with Weatherby 154 grain ammo. The silver box not the gold one. The stock looks like it’s touching on the left side of barrel but I can get paper in there. Others have mentioned this as well. Will leave it alone since it’s shooting one inch.

[@oncall21]

Some nice rifles you're buying lately WTW! Excellent groups and great shooting. Thanks for sharing!

[@hoosierplowboy5299]

Great rifle, scope, and shooting, whotee! If I wasn't 80 years old, I would buy one of these, hands--down...

[@ULFISHGETTER]

Just because you’re 80 doesn’t mean you can’t. Pass it down to your children/grandchildren! God bless you sir.

[@darrylpacholko5495]

I have a Weatherby Vanguard2 in 7mm rem mag. It's the only gun I own that I didn't have to set the trigger. Right out of the box it broke clean and light. 4 shots and it was hitting dead center. It shoots under an inch with cheap blue box federal soft points. Took my deer with it this year with a perfect double lung shot.

[@hernanlecea7041]

My RugerM77 loves federal blue box ammo too! I can get three shots in my thumbnail. Funny thing is it doesn't like the more expensive ammo like Hornady.

[@brucecoleman7412]

Awesome rifle! For looks, I drool over a nice wood stock. However, when lugging it through the woods, I always fear that I will scratch it up. The polymer stock almost always comes out looking like it did when it went in. Weatherbys are awesome no matter which flavor.

[@1507421]

Now that was just all kinds of fun. Wish I was there!

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Appreciate you watching

[@richardbruyere9523]

Great triggers make all the difference in accuracy. FYI there is a company called MCarbo that makes replacement trigger springs for many, many rifles that lower the trigger pull dramatically and thus improve accuracy. I have them in my Winchester Model 70, Ruger American and my Browning X Bolt. They are $20 max and turn your guns into tack drivers. And you have a lot of guns. Well worth the investment and the install is easy. And nice shooting bud.

[@richardwaid4718]

You can source the same trigger springs from a small company called oldbeavergunsmith that reduces trigger pull on a wide variety of rifles. I’ve installed them on all of our Ruger Americans. 3 total. The installation process is very straightforward, after fumbling a bit on the first one (20 min ) the next two only took around 10 min. ( it’s very easy). Since the Ruger’s trigger is adjustable you can set it between 1.5 and 2.5 lbs I set ours at 2 which is plenty light enough for my purposes. The previous low adjustment I was able to get was about 3.5 at best. The trigger springs are $9 on eBay with free shipping. Search- Ruger American Rifle Reduced Power Spring 1.5 lb $8.99.

[@joeltowle2737]

My Buddy has an older Mark V in 30-06! The bolt is like Butter!!! Beautiful Weatherby wood stock.

[@jimwatts4901]

I bought a WeatherBug vanguard accuguatd in 300 win mag , fluted barrel , spider webbed Monte Carlo stock and out of all my rifles it's my favorite. The 300 win mag , depending on what you're shooting at , can do more damage then a 45-70 , I've seen it myself.

[@bisleyblackhawk1288]

Weatherby rifles and NORMA ammo…two precision names that just sound right together…deer killing duo right there my friend…I used NORMA ammo way back in the day when they produced the ONLY game ammunition for many of the European calibers (locally for my 7X57 Mauser and 6.5 Carcano to be specific…not much offered by the US manufacturers for these loadings [among others].)…your content is both informative and entertaining…but you expect that from Tennessee folks (even us expatriate Georgia boys 😂)…keep up the videos 👍👍👍

[@mitchellsmith6024]

Nothing like a Weatherby but they are very picky. Mine is the 257 Weatherby Magnum and it'll let me know really quick if it likes certain ammo. Looks like you're finding what yours likes already, but it will get better for sure. Very impressed with yours is doing. I really enjoy your vids and I'm learning some new tricks from your boolet drop vids too so keep on flingin.

Thanks Matt. That means a lot. I do have some random "merch" I just never plug it. Shirts and stuff link is in the description of all the videos

[@dingo5208]

Marlin is developing for Hornady ammo and I believe Weatherby is doing the same for Norma. I have a weatherby SA-08 and love it-and it's made by the turkish factory, I imagine their first world factory is churning out some fine rifles.

[@Guitarsgunsandghosts]

Love weatherby. My first rifle was a weatherby stainless Alaskan in 300weatherby mag. I sold it to buy a desert eagle. I wish i would have kept it. I got a weatherby vanguard HUSH 300weatherby mag now

That’s a awesome gun!! Once she’s broke in it’ll be a tack driver.. Just purchased a weathrby vanguard about 2 months ago for my wife it’s such a awesome gun also 6.5 creedmor… some better ammo probably help a lot.. great upload as usual

[@Eggomania86]

Actually Norma ammo is good stuff. In fact Norma manufactures Weatherby's brand of ammunition for their proprietary magnums. On another note I have a newly manufactured Winchester model 70 with the MOA trigger. In my opinion that's a sweet trigger. I didn't even replace it or adjust it right out of the box just under 3lbs.

I only shot a 257 Weatherby mag and a 240 Mag. The 257 shot about moa with factory ammo. The 240 was my hand loads 5 shot you could cover with a penny. Only complaint is weird safety.

[@dougholbert4612]

Applaud you on making the choice of purchasing quality mark V weatherby. They have always exceeded my expectations every time I’ve purchased one and have owned and still do own several markV’s. Only thing that’s disappointing about this is your caliber selection. With all the great calibers that weatherby offers you decide on the very unimpressive and boring 6.5 needmoore? That’s the only real bummer. Had to quite watching after I learned that’s what it was chambered in. But congrats on your first mark V anyway.

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Not mine. Borrowed

[@dennisbrown9187]

Great video, I really like the rifle and scope setup, I agree that the second 200 yard group while very good, could be tightened up with a combination of trigger pull and proper breathing technique, breathing technique is just as important or more so as a great trigger and trigger pull!!! 257 Weatherby is another great deer size caliber, especially if you reload, keep up the great work!!!

[@joelmcmahan7386]

Sure is a fine looking and shooting setup, glad that hunting rifles come with stocks that aren’t shiny. I’d like to have a high end rifle, but most of the ones I’ve got shoot as good as the shooter can hold. Good shooting and gods speed to the WTW HUNTING CREW AND FANS. 👍🇺🇸

[@billybobsnorton9196]

Norma isn't cheap ammo. Norma brass is considered premium the world over. I used to shoot Weatherby rifles quite a bit. All Weatherby brand ammo is made by Norma. The hunting load may not be match grade, but the brass along with Lapua is considered the best available.

[@billsutherland7486]

On our American Legion Shooting Team, we tell the kids to dry fire a few times when they first sit down at the shooting bench. Your 3.25” grouping was because your mind wasn’t tuned into your technique, but instead on your body recovering from the target setup at 200 yds. After you shot your first group, you settled down and was able to drive tacks with your technique. You’re a great technician and marksman, so don’t apologize for an errant round. What’s the fluted bolt for besides it looks cool and is a nightmare to clean? Have you considered demonstrating gun smithing and basic tear down for cleaning videos? And now I have a burning desire for a Creedmore 6.5. I’ll have to whine to the wife that I must have a new toy. Great video! Thanks for your work. Merry Christmas.
