Description
Weatherby built the Model 307 to be the most open platform in their lineup, and the Range XP 2.0 shows why that matters. The two-lug, fully cylindrical action accepts a wide range of aftermarket stocks, triggers, rails, and magazines, so you can set this rifle up exactly how you want down the road. Chambered here in 7mm Backcountry, the hot new cartridge designed to squeeze magnum-level velocities out of shorter barrels, this rifle makes a lot of sense with its 20 inch skip-fluted tube. You get serious downrange energy from a package that carries like a compact mountain rifle.
What the Range XP 2.0 Brings to the Bench
Every Model 307 ships with Weatherby's sub-MOA guarantee, promising three-shot groups under an inch at 100 yards from a cold barrel with quality factory ammo. The TriggerTech Field trigger breaks clean with zero creep and adjusts externally down to 2.5 pounds, no stock removal required. Up front, the Accubrake threads onto the 1/2×28 muzzle and its radial design cuts felt recoil by up to 53 percent, which takes real sting out of a cartridge this stout. Spin the brake off and you are suppressor ready. Owners consistently report groups well under the guarantee once the barrel settles in.
A Stock That Fits You, Not the Other Way Around
The hand-painted green, grey, and black sponge pattern stock looks sharp, but the adjustability is the real story. Both the cheekpiece and length of pull adjust, so you can dial in proper eye alignment behind your scope and a comfortable fit whether you are in a heavy coat or a t-shirt. The vertical grip and textured touch points keep your hand planted, and dual front swivel studs handle a sling and bipod at the same time.
Feeding and Details on the Weatherby 307
A Magpul 5-round magazine comes in the box, and the bottom metal accepts standard AICS-pattern mags. The three-piece bolt strips down completely without tools for easy cleaning in camp, and an M16-style extractor keeps ejection positive. Graphite Black Cerakote covers the barrel, receiver, and bolt for weather resistance. The receiver is drilled and tapped for 8-40 screws, so plan your scope mounts accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Weatherby 307 Range XP 2.0 covered by an accuracy guarantee?
Yes. Weatherby guarantees all Model 307 rifles will shoot a three-shot group of .99 inches or better at 100 yards from a cold barrel using Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. The guarantee applies to the original purchaser for two years from the verified purchase date. Owner reports frequently show groups tighter than that once broken in.
Isn't a 20 inch barrel short for 7mm Backcountry?
That's part of the point of the cartridge. 7mm Backcountry was engineered to deliver magnum-class velocities from shorter barrels, so a 20 inch tube still produces impressive speed. That keeps this rifle compact and easy to maneuver in the field, especially with a suppressor attached.
Will Remington 700 scope bases fit the 307 Range XP 2.0?
Not directly. The 307 receiver is drilled and tapped for 8-40 screws and has its own footprint, so standard 700 bases won't line up. Look for mounts made specifically for the Weatherby 307, such as Talley rings or a Picatinny base cut for this action. Plenty of options exist, just verify 307 compatibility before you buy.
What magazines does the 307 Range XP 2.0 accept?
It ships with one 5-round Magpul magazine and the bottom metal runs standard AICS-pattern mags. That gives you a wide selection of affordable, proven magazines from Magpul, MDT, and others if you want spares or different capacities.
