The Weatherby 307 Builders Action Short in .223 Rem is a purpose-built rifle action for shooters and gunsmiths who want to start with a precision foundation and finish with exactly what they envision. Introduced as Weatherby's first new action design in over 50 years, the 307 short action is engineered to play well with the vast aftermarket ecosystem of stocks, triggers, rails, mounts, and bottom metals that modern builders rely on. Whether you're assembling a precision rimfire competitor, a lightweight varmint gun, or a custom hunting rifle, this short action gives you the platform to do it right.

Built on a 2-lug bolt with a 90-degree throw, the 307 delivers the kind of mechanical precision Weatherby has been known for since 1945. The graphite black Cerakote finish on the bolt and knob resists corrosion without adding unnecessary weight. But what really sets this action apart for builders is the tool-less takedown—you can strip it for cleaning and maintenance in seconds, no gunsmithing required. The standard .473 bolt face accepts common short-action cartridges, and the tenon is threaded to industry-standard 1-1/16-16 dimensions (the same as Remington 700 short actions), so you're not locked into Weatherby barrels or limited in aftermarket options.

At 1.65 pounds and 7.9 inches in overall length, the short action keeps your finished rifle trim and balanced. The magazine box accepts Wyatt's Outdoor extended-length magazines, giving you flexibility for different feeding systems and magazine designs. If you're hand-loading or precision-feeding match ammo, the .899-inch headspace spec is tight and repeatable. This is a real gunsmith's action—no compromise shortcuts, just a blank canvas built to exacting standards.
