So, I was just wondering what everyone used as their walking varminter.
Mine is my favorite Weatherby; West German Weatherby Mark V VarmintMaster in 224 WBY MAG. It is a scaled down Mark V action with a slim 24" barrel, full length pillar bedded, Talley bases and rings, and a Leupold VX III 2.5-8x36mm. The whole thing weighs in at 7.6lbs.
While it may not be the tack driver that my other varminters are it easily turns in 5/8"-3/4" groups @ 100 yards with factory ammunition, handloads a little better. This little cartridge basically duplicates 22-250 REM ballistics in a smaller case.
So here are a few photos I hope everyone chimes in with their favorites!
