Does anybody have a accurate account of lead time for a rifle from the custom shop these days? Throwing around the possibility of having a 257 built

Best thing you can do is call Weatherby Customer Service and ask if what your looking for is a simple and fast build, or if you have to get in line behind everyone else who has placed orders ahead of you.

I just ordered an Accumark in .257 WBY. They called and said 90 days. Feels like May 8th will never get here!

That's the scope I've been thinking about putting on my new Mark V Arroyo RC in 257 Roy.

My order was placed on 3/31/20 and on a follow-up call to the shop on 4/1 they said they are holding true to their 90 day lead time. I hope it is sooner!
