Weatherby 307

[rkyoder]

Recently bought a Weatherby 307 in 7PRC. It comes with a 3.715” AICS mag. I got 2 questions.
1. Does anyone know of a 3rd mag that will be flush?
2. What would it take to swap it for a hinged floor plate?

I don't think I can answer your question but, I looked at one in 6.5 PRC yesterday. It was at Scheels. It almost went out the door with me (...of course after the 3 day life saving waiting period). But I keep drifting back to either a Tikka or Browning lightweights in one of the 6.5's.

I liked the ergonomics of it and it shouldered/fit very well for me with minimal adjustments. I'd like to see a lighter version though. Even the Alpine model runs 6.8+/- lbs depending on caliber. For a floor plate conversion maybe the Weatherby custom shop has a solution. MDT makes 3, 5, and 10 round AICS magazines. I would think the 3 round mag would fit/be compatible.
