Key Features
- Two-Stage Adjustable Trigger — Why it matters: Dial pull weight from 2.5 to 4.5 lbs on the fly, eliminating the need for aftermarket trigger swaps and giving you a crisp, repeatable break for precision shooting.
- 24-inch Heavy Barrel with Fluting — Why it matters: The 1:8 twist heavy contour sheds heat faster during strings of fire and maintains rigidity for consistent bullet stabilization, critical for 338 RPM loads pushing 300-grain projectiles.
- Aluminum Bedding Block Stock — Why it matters: Rigid action-to-stock interface maintains zero even when shooting from barricades or bipods, reducing point-of-impact shift from stock flex.
- Three-Lug Bolt with 60-Degree Lift — Why it matters: Faster cycling than standard two-lug designs, allowing quicker follow-up shots while keeping the scope low for a natural cheek weld.
- Threaded Muzzle (5/8-24) — Why it matters: Accepts direct-thread suppressors or muzzle brakes without adapter rings, reducing recoil and signature for tactical applications.
Who It’s For
This rifle is built for precision rifle competitors, law enforcement precision marksmen, and military shooters who need a production-grade platform that holds its own against custom builds. If you run PRS matches, shoot steel past 800 meters, or require a duty rifle that prints sub-MOA with factory match ammo, the 307 Range SF HB fits your mission profile.
Pros & Cons

FAQ
What is the barrel twist rate on the Weatherby 307 Range SF HB?
The factory barrel uses a 1:8 twist rate, optimized for stabilizing 250- to 300-grain 338 RPM projectiles. Per Weatherby specs, this twist handles heavy-for-caliber bullets required for long-range precision.
Does this rifle accept standard Remington 700 scope bases?
No. The 307 action uses a proprietary footprint. You will need Weatherby-specific scope bases or a one-piece rail designed for the 307 pattern. Most aftermarket manufacturers now offer direct-fit options.
Can I use this rifle for hunting?
Yes, but the heavy barrel and 9.8 lb weight make it better suited for stand hunting or long-range field shooting rather than spot-and-stalk. The 338 RPM delivers sufficient energy for elk and bear at extended distances.
What magazines are compatible with the 338 RPM?
The rifle uses modified AICS-pattern magazines. Weatherby ships one 3-round magazine with the rifle. Aftermarket options from Accurate-Mag work with minor feed lip adjustments per user reports.
