Yes - your rifle can be sent to Weatherby for refurbishing or modification.

All Weatherby (Mark V® and Vanguard®) rifles are guaranteed to shoot a 1 1/2" (or better) 3-shot group at 100 yards from a cold barrel when used with Weatherby factory ammunition. For Weatherby rifles chambered in non-Weatherby calibers, the guarantee is effective when premium loads are used. All Weatherby® Vanguard rifles come with a factory-shot, 3-shot target as your assurance of accuracy. If for some reason your rifle does not shoot within the guarantee, Weatherby advises you to send the rifle to a Weatherby-authorized service center. After being tested by the service center, if indeed it does not shoot within the guarantee and the rifle has not been altered, the service center will repair the rifle under warranty, or forward it to the factory for inspection and replacement approval, if deemed necessary.

Select models (SUB-MOA) are guaranteed to shoot .99" or less at 100 yards when used with specified Weatherby factory or premium ammunition (3-shot group).

Weatherby currently manufactures ammunition for Weatherby Magnum calibers only, and has no intentions to manufacture on an ongoing basis standard cartridge ammunition. Weatherby recommends you purchase premium standard cartridge ammunition from a high quality ammunition manufacturer.

NOTE:  Weatherby did produce a small run of non-Weatherby caliber ammunition in 1997. Calibers included: .270 Win., .30-06 Spfd., 7mm Rem. Mag., .300 Win. Mag., .338 Win. Mag., and .375 H&H Mag.

All Weatherby Mark V® rifles (.257 Wby. Mag. - .460 Wby. Mag.) can be ordered as a left-hand model. For more information, please call the Weatherby Custom Shop at (805) 227-2600.

There is a list of Weatherby authorized service centers located on this web site. We recommend you send it to the service center nearest you.

There are Weatherby-authorized Accubrake installation centers located across the United States. You can have an Accubrake installed on your rifle at any one of these centers or in the Weatherby Custom Shop in Paso Robles, CA. The work done by these centers is the same as would be done by the factory and the warranty of the rifle would still be in place. A list of these authorized installation centers can be found on this web site or you can call Weatherby for a list.

Weatherby no longer manufactures scopes, nor do we promote any particular brand of scope. We do recommend, however, due to the amount of recoil sometimes experienced with the larger magnum rifles, you choose a well-made, high quality scope.

The Weatherby service policy reads as follows:

“Weatherby is a name that has been synonymous with quality firearms for over 60 years. All Weatherby firearms are manufactured of the finest materials, and have been thoroughly inspected and tested in every phase of production.

Because of the confidence we have in our products, Weatherby does not provide a written warranty, but rather stands behind its reputation for customer service and satisfaction.

Simply stated, we will consider requests for service or repair of Weatherby firearms on a case-by-case basis. A determination will be made, taking into consideration such things as the age and condition of the firearm, and the circumstances surrounding its malfunction or other problem.

Weatherby will not be responsible for defects resulting from ordinary wear and tear, alterations by unauthorized persons, accidents, misuse, use of incorrect or other than factory-loaded ammunition, or failure to provide reasonable and normal maintenance.

Should any Weatherby firearm require service or repair under this service policy, it must be delivered transportation prepaid to an authorized Weatherby Service Center. The product must be accompanied by a proof of purchase, and a letter explaining the problem. The rifle should also be insured by the owner at time of shipment, as Weatherby, Inc. can accept no responsibility for damage or loss in transit. Weatherby will pay all charges to return the product to the owner if it is accepted for service or repair under the provisions of this policy.”
