    Weatherby Mark V pref the accumark(stainless barrel B and c stock). As to calibre choice? Well I'd have to choose either a Weatherby magnum or something that can be used regularly but with some class like the humble 30-06.

    Do you like browning rifles? The white gold is a nice one.

    Mauser M03 in .404 jeffery would be very nice. CZ550 in .416 rigby would be a bit cheaper.
