Default Looking for a 6.5-300 Wby Accumark

Hey AO, new to the forum here. Im not looking to argue the caliber or the make of the rifle.

I contacted Weatherby and they haven't gotten back to me yet, and ive looked for a dealer through their website and couldnt find any in canada that had a 6.5-300 accumark. Any help or nods in the right direction would be appreciated! Thanks!

It going to be something you'll have to special order or contact clay at prophet River to order you one in from the states. If you special order it, you might be waiting a long time.

Weatherby is usually pretty quick. Although the 6.5-300 is still brand new(Well the commercial version at least) so OP you may have to wait for demand to die down a wee bit in the states. Call Clay at Prophet River and ask. He will know better than anyone.

When the 30-378 was introduced, people were lined up to get one, and it was over a year before they started arriving in Canada in any volume.

Clay may be able to get one up for you from the states from one if his contacts down there as well.
The better option IMO of course is to build one !

Building one is the best idea by far, build what you want, and you won't be limited to a Weatherby action.
