Weatherby 307

What Is the Weatherby 307?

The 307 is Weatherby's push-feed bolt-action rifle — a departure from the controlled round feed of the Mark V and the proprietary Weatherby Magnum chambers. The 307 uses a standard push-feed action that accepts AICS detachable magazines, making magazine sourcing simple and affordable. It's chambered in standard industry cartridges from .243 Winchester through .338 Winchester Magnum — giving hunters who prefer non-proprietary calibers access to Weatherby's manufacturing quality and accuracy guarantee.

307 vs. Mark V

The Mark V is Weatherby's flagship — a nine-lug controlled round feed action chambered primarily in proprietary Weatherby Magnum cartridges with a premium price to match. The 307 is Weatherby's mainstream offering — push-feed action, standard calibers, AICS magazine compatibility, and a significantly lower price. For hunters who want Weatherby quality without the Weatherby Magnum premium, the 307 is the correct choice. For hunters who specifically want a Weatherby Magnum cartridge, the Mark V is the answer.
