X-bolt in .280 Rem would fit your requirements perfectly :tup:
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

That really depends on what specific model and year Weatherby and which specific Trijicon scope! You could easily be talking about a $3500 rifle/scope combo!
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

I have shot quite a few calibers and I love my model 700 7mm mag. Its flat shooting and plenty of power. My dad has a Browning X-bolt 325 short mag and that gun will drop anything in its tracks. I have only seen one animal run after being shot and that was a 456 yard shot at a whitetail in Idaho and he died shortly after. Those are my 2 favorites

Rifle? http://www.weatherby.com/product/rifles/markv/ultralight

Scope? http://www.amazon.com/Accupoint-Standard-Crosshair-Riflescope-Green/dp/B0026O1GFG

From what you have said so far if it's under about $2000 for the package you got a real winner :P
