Did Scheels say why they don't stock Weatherby? Does anyone know if they do in their other stores?

Scheels used to carry them, but dropped them a few years ago.  My guess is they weren't moving enough of them due to high price and expensive ammo.  I think this is why you see a bunch of new rifle choices, a new conventional shoulder caliber, and cheaper prices across the board from Weatherby. They are trying to gain back market share they lost to other high end rifle manufactures.

I picked up my ULW 6.5-300 at Scheels, the manager ordered it and the ammo on the spot while I was standing there. I don't know if they stock Weatherbys, but it was a great place to deal with since they went out of their way to help me.

Yes but they moved Cabelas Corporate  out of Sidney Nebraska causing a bust of Sidney's economy. The sale of Cabelas was forced by a venture capitalist that bought enough shares to force a sale. Not blaming Bass Pro they took advantage of the situation they were offered.
