Was doing some looking around a saw Weatherby 307 range sf says it has sender0 contour barrel I like that , any one
Have any experience with Weatherby?

I like the actions. The triggers are a little stiff. You can get a timney replacement for them I’ve done that on a couple of them that really helps. They also make a lighter spring that you put in them. That helps quite a bit.

HI’m was the accuracy ?

I saw a Christensen arms mesa fft 6.5 prc for 849.99 but I have heard most bad things about that any one confirm this .

Great choice, I would take this over Tikka.

Have a thousand to spend what the best consistent shooting rifle, I don’t mind weight so a heavy barrel I feel is a must short Action or long action don’t really matter thanks for the input

Tikka’s and Browning X-bolts have been some of the very best consistent shooters I’ve seen. I’d pick one.

Ruger Americans, an entry level rifle in every respect, tend to shoot very well. Savages I’m conflicted on, can be had for very low $, tend to shoot well, but look clunky to me so usually avoid them.

Something like this might scratch your itch? https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1078137598

Tikka T3x lite or superlite is the easy button. I really don’t see a practical need for a heavier barrel because the lites I have shoot well when they’re hot. Just look at the 10-30 round groups guys on here are getting.

Some better than others but all under MOA with factory ammo just started loading. Haven’t got around to these caliber yet.

Another vote for a Tikka T3X here. I have a couple and they are as close to a custom action from the factory that I’ve ever seen. Another bonus is Mountain Tactical makes a spring that gets you a trigger pull close to a custom trigger for a very reasonable price.

I have a t3x laminate 243, a t3x rough tech super lite 300 win mag I got on sale for 1000, t3x lite in 22-250. I have bought some lite compacts for around 600 just for the action and order prefit barrels and put them in chassis, but that’s not really what you’re asking for. However, it can be done in the future if that’s what you desire and the actions are good.

Is there a reason why a heavy barrel is a must?

My bad. 25-06 was an Abolt. Rebarreled one for 7prc can’t remember which caliber it was.

Um to be honest it looks
Cool and from what I understand which is very limited that heavier barrels are better for higher shot groups , and heat

“Just buy a tikka and then spend another $2k putting it in a new stock and rebarreling it.” Tikka’s are over rated.

What you think is a good option I’m honestly asking cause I don’t know much rather get input from people who have shoot a lot and can give me honest feedback back

Browning Xbolt. I have owned several and they all shot excellent.

Laughable.

I have the Range XP in 7PRC and it's a shooter. Scheel's has them on sale right now for $1K. It's an affordable setup that has some nice features. Otherwise Tikka is a solid option.
