I was disappointed but the rifle is supper accurate with barnes 168 gr tots

needed the brake because at 77 I am getting recoil shy

will probably get a 308 and shoot 130 gr tats

but I still think that Weatherby is misleading with the brake

one size fits all that is poor ingeneering

Michel,
Thank you for your question. Yes, this is accurate. We have these large enough to accommodate most of our calibers. Thank you for reaching out to us.
Best Regards,
 Dennis

Reason for Contact
    just bought a accumark in 30-06
the muzzle brake has a I/D of .450
is this normal it seems a bit big for the caliber

I have asked that because I noticed very little reduction in recoil and the muzzle brake was not noisy

Pictures?

when I slip a paper to see if the barrel is free floating it goes all the way back leaving about 3 inches of barrel in front of action
should the paper go al the way to the receiver ?

the answer from Weatheby came as what are the shims for and how are they put

Those shims are there to flush up the stock with the bottom metal so it looks flush and even.  You can use them in whichever configuration is needed to accomplish that.  They do not affect the functionality of the firearm.

I hope this helps.

Doug

None of my Weatherby rifles have shims. Are you the original owner? If you are not, it’s possible someone put shims in to try to float the barrel. Or maybe it’s a replacement stock that didn’t fit correctly.

yes brand new from factory   
and in the instructions boocklet they show the shims
one in the back and one in the front
but I have 4 of them that fell out and I don't know if they go 2 on each side or 1 and 3

sent a email to Weatherby and waiting for answer
will let you know the answer

number 5 it is.   

thank you

just received my Mark V Accumark in 30-06
