The Weatherby 307 Alpine ST 6.5 Weatherby RPM 22-inch is a lightweight precision rifle built for hunters and shooters who want factory accuracy without the custom wait. This rifle pairs Weatherby’s new 307 two-lug action with a PEAK 44 Bastion stock to deliver sub-MOA performance straight out of the box. It’s chambered in the fast and flat-shooting 6.5 Weatherby RPM, with a spiral-fluted 22-inch barrel and an integrated Accubrake ST to keep recoil manageable. Per Weatherby specs, the Graphite Black Cerakote finish protects against the elements, making this a reliable field companion.

Key Features
- Model 307 Action: A fully cylindrical, two-lug bolt that’s compatible with popular aftermarket triggers and scope mounts. Why it matters: You can upgrade or customize without sending the rifle to a gunsmith.
- PEAK 44 Bastion Stock: Exposed carbon-fiber construction with a 3D-Hex recoil pad. Why it matters: It saves weight while absorbing felt recoil, so you stay on target for follow-up shots.
- Spiral-Fluted 22-Inch Barrel: Reduces weight and helps the barrel cool faster between shots. Why it matters: Consistent accuracy during long strings of fire in the field or at the range.
- Accubrake ST Muzzle Brake: Weatherby’s integrated brake cuts recoil significantly without adding length. Why it matters: You can spot your own hits and shoot more comfortably, especially with the 6.5 RPM’s speed.
- Graphite Black Cerakote: A durable, corrosion-resistant finish on the barrel and receiver. Why it matters: This rifle can handle rain, snow, and humidity without rust or wear.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter who hikes miles into the backcountry and wants a lightweight rig that still shoots like a heavy bench gun. It’s also for the shooter who appreciates a modern, customizable platform without paying custom-gun prices. If you’re new to Weatherby, the 307 Alpine ST gives you that famous Weatherby accuracy in a package that won’t beat you up.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Lightweight at 6.5 lbs; factory sub-MOA guarantee; integrated muzzle brake; carbon-fiber stock reduces felt recoil; compatible with aftermarket triggers and rails.
- Cons: The 6.5 Weatherby RPM is a proprietary cartridge, so ammo availability is more limited than common calibers like 6.5 Creedmoor or .308 Winchester. You’ll want to stock up when you find it.

FAQ
Is the Weatherby 307 Alpine ST accurate right out of the box?
Yes. Weatherby guarantees sub-MOA accuracy with factory ammunition. The spiral-fluted barrel and the 307 action are designed for consistency, and the Accubrake ST helps you stay steady.
Can I mount any scope on this rifle?
The 307 action uses a standard Picatinny rail pattern, so you can mount most one-piece or two-piece scope bases. Many aftermarket rings and mounts from Leupold, Vortex, and Nightforce fit without modification.
What is the 6.5 Weatherby RPM cartridge good for?
It’s a high-velocity, flat-shooting round ideal for medium to large game like deer, elk, and pronghorn out to 600 yards. It offers less recoil than a .300 Win Mag but retains energy well at distance.
How does the recoil compare to a 6.5 Creedmoor?
With the Accubrake ST, the 6.5 Weatherby RPM feels similar to a 6.5 Creedmoor in recoil, despite producing higher muzzle velocity. The 3D-Hex recoil pad in the Bastion stock helps further.
Does this rifle come with a scope or rings?
No. The Weatherby 307 Alpine ST is sold as a barreled action and stock only. You’ll need to add your own scope and mounts.
