Check with Weatherby- their California number is 805-227-2600. There IS a safety recall on certain Vanguard rifles- see their website for more information.
Nice rifle
It is a Vanguard.
The 300 Weatherby Magnum is a long action.
No published sn data.
The later ones are made by Howa in Japan. Vanguard is almost identical to the Howa 1500 which was also sold as Smith & Wesson rifle and Mossberg 1500.
You will have to contact Weatherby to find out.
it depends on who made the rifle. weatherby, Remington. there are many commercial rifles built today that are worth money. if you get a original receiver and barrel complete. i have built 3 in my past and there worth about 3000 prairie dogs......
You will have to contact the Weatherby Collector's Association.
100-500 or so
Your description tells me that you have a custom rifle chambered in .300 Weatherby Magnum which was built on a 1903 Springfield action.The weatherby Cartridges did not come into being until the 1940,s and were only available in the Weatherby rifles of that time,It would be har to define a value for you because it is unknown how much work went into this rifle and the components used.If you can locate the gunsmith that made this rifle,i am sure he could tell you the amount spent to create it.
