Description
Weatherby built its name on the Mark V and Vanguard, but the Model 307 action is where the company decided to meet the modern rifle market head on. The 307 Range XP 2.0 in .30-06 Springfield runs a two-lug, fully cylindrical steel action that plays nice with the huge ecosystem of aftermarket stocks, triggers, rails, and magazines already out there. Weatherby backs it with a sub-MOA guarantee, promising three-shot groups under an inch at 100 yards from a cold barrel with quality factory ammo. That is real confidence in a rifle at this level, chambered in one of the most versatile hunting cartridges ever made.
What Makes the 307 Range XP 2.0 Different
The trigger alone is worth a hard look. Weatherby ships this rifle with a TriggerTech Field trigger that breaks with zero creep and adjusts externally down to 2.5 pounds, no stock removal required. The three-piece bolt strips down completely without tools, so cleaning it in camp is painless, and the M16-style extractor pulls cases with authority. Up front, the fluted 22 inch barrel wears an Accubrake that Weatherby claims cuts felt recoil by up to 53 percent, which takes the sting out of a .30-06 during long range sessions. Pull the brake off and the universal threads are ready for a suppressor. Total length with the brake installed comes to 24 inches.
A Stock That Fits You, Not the Other Way Around
The synthetic stock features an adjustable cheekpiece and adjustable length of pull, so you can dial in proper eye alignment behind your scope instead of craning your neck. The vertical grip and textured touch points keep things steady in wet weather, dual front swivel studs handle a sling and bipod at the same time, and the hand-painted green and grey sponge pattern gives it a custom shop look. Feeding comes from a Magpul bottom metal setup with a 5-round AICS pattern magazine, and any AICS mag will drop right in. The receiver comes drilled and tapped with 8-40 screws, with Graphite Black Cerakote covering the barrel and bolt for corrosion resistance season after season.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will Remington 700 scope bases fit the Weatherby 307 Range XP 2.0?
The Model 307 uses a Remington 700 footprint but with larger 8-40 mounting screws instead of the standard 6-48, so most off-the-shelf 700 bases will not bolt straight on. Look for 8-40 two-piece bases, Talley rings made for the 307, or a Peak 44 one-piece rail. Weatherby customer service is helpful in pointing you to the right mount if you get stuck.
What magazines does the 307 Range XP 2.0 use?
It ships with a 5-round Magpul magazine seated in Magpul AICS-pattern bottom metal. Any standard long-action AICS magazine will work, which gives you plenty of options for higher capacity mags or spares from the range bag.
Can I run a suppressor on this rifle?
Yes. The included Accubrake threads onto universal suppressor-ready threads, so you can remove the brake and spin on a can or a thread protector. The brake itself is a nice bonus for unsuppressed shooting since it noticeably tames .30-06 recoil.
Is the Weatherby 307 Range XP 2.0 accurate enough for long range work?
Weatherby guarantees sub-MOA performance, meaning three-shot groups of .99 inch or better at 100 yards from a cold barrel with quality factory ammunition. Owners regularly report groups well under that mark. Combined with the adjustable TriggerTech trigger and adjustable stock, it is well suited for stretching a .30-06 out to practical hunting distances and beyond.
