I think guys with over 15 Weatherby rifles should get one as a gift  :o  I would even lower my standard's and accept one with a wood stock if it was a gift  ::)  ::)

I think it would almost have to began life as a Deluxe since that is the traditional Weatherby rifle.

It would be no surprise if the 75th Anniversary of Weatherby is in conjuntion with the launching a new Weatherby chambering, such as a 7mm-300 or 7mm-378 Weatherby Magnum, or even a line of custom-only rifles with various stock designs, barrel contour and lenght, and finishes......but what do I know.

What did they come out with in the past for Anniversary Rifles? I bet it will be pretty special and require "A Lot" of saving up for.

Agree Roger...…"A LOT of saving"

I'll be glad if I can afford ammo for it!  I'll settle for a really nice Vanguard with a Weatherby Nation stamped 75th anniversary  edition in whatever Weatherby caliber. Wood? Synthetic?  Stainless? Blue? I don't give a flying Wild Turkey!
LOL!

I think that it's a good possibility for them to make a 75th anniversary rifle because they made one for their 50th. 
Nothing is better than a Weatherby, big bore magnum, or a Colt.

If Weatherby follows suit and does a 75th Anniversary Rifle, looks like it could be a MK V Deluxe model of some type.

I would be surprised if they made it in anything other than a Deluxe version of the Mark V and Vanguard.

To those who want a free 75th anniversary rifle if you have 15 or more bees, you can. Just trade in 5 of them and you will get it for free...lol.

Why would anyone trade in 5 Mark V Weatherby's rifles to get one???   That just makes no sense at all  :o
