Description
Weatherby built the Model 307 to play nice with the rest of the shooting world, and the Range SF is where that idea really pays off. The action is a 2-lug, fully cylindrical design built on the Remington 700 footprint, so scope bases, triggers, stocks, and bottom metal from the huge 700 aftermarket bolt right up. Out of the box you get a lot of the upgrades people usually add later anyway: an externally adjustable TriggerTech Field trigger, a Magpul detachable magazine with AICS compatibility, and a synthetic stock with an adjustable cheekpiece and length of pull spacers.
A .223 Range SF That Earns Its Name
The 20-inch heavy contour barrel is free floated, finished in Tungsten Cerakote to match the receiver, and threaded 5/8-24 with a thread protector included, so adding a brake or suppressor is simple. In .223 Rem with a fast twist, this setup is a natural for prairie dog towns, coyote stands, steel plates, and affordable trigger time at the range. The thicker barrel profile holds its point of impact during longer strings, and Weatherby guarantees sub-MOA three-shot groups at 100 yards with match ammo. Independent range testing has backed that up, with factory-fresh rifles printing groups around half an inch with ammo it likes.
Fit and Handling on the 307 Range SF
The stock deserves some credit here too. The vertical grip and flat forend suit shooting off bags or a bipod, texturing at the touch points keeps things planted when your hands are cold or wet, and dual front swivel studs let you run a bipod and sling at the same time. The bolt breaks down without tools for easy cleaning in the field, and an M16-style extractor pulls cases with authority. A two-position safety and drilled-and-tapped receiver round out the package. No sights are included, so plan on mounting glass.
At 7.9 pounds bare, the Range SF sits in that sweet spot: heavy enough to shoot small groups all afternoon, light enough to carry when a varmint hunt turns into a hike. It is built at Weatherby's Sheridan, Wyoming facility, and it feels like it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Weatherby 307 Range SF compatible with Remington 700 accessories?
Yes, and that is one of the biggest selling points of the Model 307 platform. The action is built on the Rem 700 footprint, so most aftermarket stocks, chassis, triggers, scope bases, and bottom metal for the 700 will fit. Weatherby designed it to be the most open platform in their lineup.
How accurate is the 307 Range SF in .223 Rem?
Weatherby guarantees a three-shot group of .99 inch or less at 100 yards with quality ammunition. Published range testing of this exact .223 model has shown factory-fresh groups in the half-inch range with loads the barrel favors. The free-floated heavy barrel and TriggerTech Field trigger do a lot of the heavy lifting there.
Does the Weatherby 307 Range SF come with a muzzle brake?
This .223 Rem version ships with a thread protector on its 5/8-24 threaded muzzle rather than a brake, which makes sense given how mild the cartridge is. The threading makes it easy to add a brake or suppressor if you want one. Some larger-caliber 307 models do include Weatherby's Accubrake from the factory.
What magazines does the 307 Range SF accept?
It ships with one 5-round Magpul detachable box magazine and is compatible with AICS-pattern magazines. That gives you plenty of options for higher capacity mags or spares since the AICS pattern is one of the most common on the market.
