Havent bought any weatherbys there but they have been the cheapest for for the last 4 remingtons I bought. Give them a call they usually have what you need or can get it.

I've been looking for a left handed markv accumark for awhile now. All the dealers I talked to said they didn't have one and it would be 8-12 months before they could get one. i sent an email to Prophet River and clay emailed weatherby direct and asked on the status of such a rifle. They had them in stock and could put one in with his next order-(clay forwarded this email to me to show he could get one quick). So i said order me one and it has been about 4 weeks now. I got an email from prophet river tuesday that it will be in soon. Also prophet rivers price was over $400 cheaper than anyone else. When it comes in I'll let you know exactly how long it took but so far I am very impressed with the service.
If you're looking for a custome built one-corlanes built me a 270 weatherby.

Cabela's has a really nice Custom Weatherby in their Gun Library. I think it's around $5000 +/- a few $$.

I saw those customs today. A 257 and a 300 , 4999 each. Showed them to my wife as next christmas is coming soon. If I had to start over again those would be the two guns I would own, with some Swarovsky optics of course.
