We just got back from a trip to Clarkston, Wash. (Lewiston, Idaho) to see my wife's father for his 88th birthday. It was a great trip and the day before we were to leave he says I want to give you my Weatherby Mark V. I tried to tell him he needed to keep it a while longer--but he was insistent.

He also gave me the original box of 300 mag cartridges he bought when he bought the rifle new in 1977--with 2 missing. This rifle has been shot twice since new in 1977.
The price sticker is still on the box from 1977---$13.95 for a box of Weatherby 300 Magnums.

I went to the local hardware store, which is also a gun store, and bought a lockable hard case to fit the rifle and brought it back on the airplane with us.

I hope to go shooting soon.
