“new weatherby”

At SHOT Show 2016, Weatherby premiered its new Vanguard Camilla, a rifle designed exclusively with the huntress in mind. The company's mission, from the start, was to craft a rifle that was designed from the ground up for women, by women—and not to just make a smaller, pinker version of a standard Vanguard. The result is the Camilla, which is now shipping to stores around the country.

Weatherby's Mark V was never really "broken," but the company decided 2016 was the time to upgrade its signature design, at least a bit.

The new Weatherby Element is the company's first inertia-operated semi-auto shotgun, and it comes with looks and a price bird hunters will love.

The new Weatherby 18i semi-auto shotguns are built on an inertia-operated action that provides reliable cycling in an evenly-weighted gun. The Italian-made line consists of three models; the elegant Weatherby 18i Deluxe, the 18i Synthetic and the 18i Waterfowler.

Weatherby has continued its new-for-2016 product rollout, announcing the impending release of the New Mark V Weathermark, a Mark V built to withstand even the harshest backcountry conditions.

In 2016, Weatherby will provide significant refinements to its legendary rifle for the first time since its introduction in 1958.

Since 1958, Roy Weatherby’s darling, his namesake Mark V rifle, has changed very little, and that’s one of the reasons it’s so recognizable. For 2016, Weatherby has introduced several tweaks its flagship New Mark V that will allow it to remain relevant in today’s hyper-competitive market.

Roy Weatherby was the godfather of the “speed kills” mantra, and so he designed his rifle cartridges to be the fastest and therefore the hardest hitting. Over 70 years later, the company is, er, sticking to its guns with the release of what is the fastest production 6.5-caliber cartridge, the new 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum. Here are five things you need to know.
