[QUOTE="Clackamas Jack, post: 4132443, member: 52075"] I was doing some reading on Weatherby cartridges and noticed that Roy's first cartridge he designed was the 270 Weatherby Mag in 1943. I know he designed the legendary 300 Weatherby Mag in 1944. The one thing that confuses me is at the peak of WW2 Roy was designing cartridges but it appears he wasn't in the service? It seems odd that Weatherby had the resources and time to design his cartridges and in 1945 come out the gates with Weatherby Inc producing rifles when the world was at war and Americans were generally all supporting the war effort in some way. What are your thoughts? [/QUOTE]
