or small game shooting with a fast-action repeater. The Mark XXII SA and engaging place to spend some time. The discussion is always on
THE HISTORY OF WEATHERBY began in the mid-1940s when a young cartridge “wildcatter” named Roy Weatherby set out to change
the world of firearm performance. Contrary to then-popular thinking (heavy bullets pushed at slow speeds), Roy believed that lightweight bullets
traveling at super high speeds provided the best combination to create the hydrostatic shock required for one-shot kills. Based upon that philosophy,
he spent the next decade developing the high-powered Weatherby® Magnum cartridges for which the company is known today (.224, .240, .257,
.270, 7mm, .300, .30-378, .340, .338-378, .375, .378, .416 and .460). Roy went on to develop the Mark V® in 1958, a proprietary action renowned as
the “world’s strongest bolt action.” In 1970, he developed the Vanguard® action, borrowing many of the characteristics of the Mark V, based on a
dual-opposed lug Mauser-style action. Today, the company is also known for a proprietary line of Over/Under, Side-by-Side, Semi-automatic and
Pump shotguns. Rifle or shotgun, superior design and unparalleled performance are cornerstones of every firearm that carries the Weatherby name.
