Think I might make it my next purchase. Need it for some missions anyway. Although I think I need a spotting scope first, just to make daily missions easier.
Yes, definitely get the Spotting Scope first! That's a must and will make things sooo much easier for you. I am using it all the time and can't live without it anymore. :lol:

In real hunting it's very popular for elk. The same is true for deer with a lighter bullet.

They made the gun seem too powerful in the game. Weatherby has a lot more calibers for the big game.

Hello everyone: I have all the rifles (except the skins!) except what I'm missing in my collection is the 7x64mm! It would be nice to have an opinion on this weapon! Thanks for your information!

I tried it. It's a nice gun for deer. What did you want to hunt with it?

True but in real life it kicks like mule and unless your six feet and 220 lbs forget it the bite will cause the shooter to flinch at the pull of the Tigger NOT GOOD

That's true and pretty common for all Weatherby calibers. They aren't made for girls, kids, or weak men. I worked out hard to stay in shape for hunting elk in the Rockies. I'd add a picture but this forum won't let me show a pic from my computer but nobody wants to see it anyway. You'll have to trust me on this one. I was in shape and Weatherby's were no problem.
