The Weatherby 307 Alpine MDT .270 Wby Mag rifle (brand part no. 3WAMH270WR8B) is a bolt-action hunting rifle chambered in .270 Weatherby Magnum, built on Weatherby’s Model 307 action. It has a 26-inch barrel with a 1:10 twist, and the barrel is threaded 1/2-28 and fitted with the Accubrake muzzle brake. The rifle sits in MDT’s HNT26 chassis, a 26-ounce system with an adjustable cheekpiece, adjustable length of pull and a foldable buttstock that cuts over 9 inches from its length when collapsed. Weatherby builds the Model 307 in Sheridan, Wyoming, and guarantees sub-MOA accuracy, a 3-shot group of .99 inch or less at 100 yards, with Weatherby factory or premium ammunition.
