About this product
What is the Weatherby Model 307 Range XP 2.0 25 WBY RPM 22-inch 5rd? It's a precision bolt-action rifle built on Weatherby's Model 307 action designed for adaptability and consistent performance. The rifle combines a fluted 22-inch barrel with 1/2-28 threads and a hand-painted synthetic stock to balance handling and durability.
What is the Weatherby Model 307 Range XP 2.0 used for?
This rifle is engineered for precision shooting at ranges up to 800 yards depending on optic. It handles sustained fire without overheating due to the fluted barrel, making it suitable for competitive events or extended training sessions where reliability under repetitive cycling matters.
How does the Weatherby Model 307 Range XP 2.0 compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle in .308 Win?
The Weatherby outperforms the Stevens 334 in accuracy potential, holding sub-MOA groups with factory ammo, while the Stevens averages 1.5 MOA. However, the Stevens costs $350 less and uses more available .308 Win ammunition, making it better for budget-conscious shooters.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
Unloaded weight is 7.5 lbs (120 oz), with an overall length of 41.75 inches and a barrel length of 22 inches. The length of pull adjusts from 13.5 to 14.25 inches, accommodating most adult shooters comfortably.
Who is this NOT for?
Beginners or hunters prioritizing lightweight gear should avoid this rifle; it weighs 7.5 lbs unloaded and requires practice to master the 25 WBY RPM cartridge's recoil. For a lighter, more forgiving option, consider the Stevens 334 in .308 Win.
What's in the box?
You receive the rifle, one 5-round magazine, a threaded muzzle brake, and a basic owner's manual. Unlike some competitors, it does not include scope mounts or a cleaning kit, adding roughly $80-120 to initial setup costs.
Is the Weatherby Model 307 Range XP 2.0 worth it at $1189?
At $1189, it justifies its price for shooters needing sub-MOA accuracy and suppressor compatibility, but the 25 WBY RPM ammo costs $65 per box versus $40 for .308 Win. For more on caliber selection, read our guide to bolt-action calibers.
