I've seen that ad also. I probably saw it in same American Rifleman issue you mention, though no longer have mine. No doubt lost in one of my many moves.

Weatherby was a great promoter and customer service guy!
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres

Jayhawker just might be onto something....

Wow... a Weatherby magnum for $250.

Those day are long gone...

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.
