Weatherby Rifles Forum


The Weatherby Rifles Forum is a place for the discussion of anything Weatherby, including sub-forums for buying, selling and trading and off-topic discussions.

I note that Roy would have been 99 years old this month if he had hung around, and the company he founded has been around for over 64 years.

To quote the Weatherby company site itself:
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 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).
