Initially
a wildcat cartridge developed by Roy Weatherby in 1959 at the
request of the United States Army. This white-hot cartridge is
based on the .378 necked down to .30 caliber and packed with
powder. Originally billed as the world’s fastest .30 caliber
cartridge, it will push a .30 caliber bullet more than 3,500
feet per second. Reintroduced as a Weatherby production
cartridge in 1996.
Our WMVx Version of the
.30-378 will push a 180 grain Nosler Partition Bullet to over
3,690 feet per second!

The
original Weatherby Accumark™ was conceived to be the ultimate in a long-range,
extremely accurate hunting rifle. It features a
specially-designed, hand-laminated raised comb Monte Carlo
synthetic stock (a combination of Kevlar, unidirectional fibers
and fiberglass). It also features a molded-in, CNC-machined
aluminum bedding plate that stiffens the receiver area of the
rifle when the barreled action is secured to the block,
providing a stable and rigid platform for the action. The
Weatherbyman™ goes further to ensure you receive a custom
well-made exotic hunting weapon of unparalleled accuracy and
devastating energies delivered to your quarry by installing
custom stocks, cryogen metals treatment, and custom made 28"
barrels.
A cold hammer-forged, heavy contour stainless steel free-floated
barrel features a special longitudinal fluting system and a .705
diameter muzzle with recessed target crown. The flutes increase
barrel surface area to help dissipate heat, while the recessed
target crown is concentrically perfect to maintain pinpoint
accuracy.
Adding to the accuracy potential of this rifle
and caliber is
a full 2" in overall barrel length by installing a custom
28" barrel
while maintaining factory weights. The
factory-tuned trigger assembly that is among the finest in the
industry. Each trigger is fully adjustable with sear engagement
preset at between .012 to .015 and a let-off weight of 2.5
pounds. As you would expect with any Weatherby rifle, there is
no finer production trigger available anywhere unless of course
it comes from the Weatherbyman™ tuned down a full 2 lbs. over
factory specifications.
We simply make the best
better!
Available only in Weatherby Magnum cartridges from
.30-378,
.338-378, & .378WM - Standard 26" versions of the
WMVx Accumark are available upon request.
