Weatherby used this on their Mk Vs made in the USA and it looks horrible. Esp if the wood has any kind of fancy grain.

Why on earth are they doing this? A professional checkering job costs $350. I can understand engraving, that costs about $1k or more on a shotgun for full coverage, English scroll.

If I had an RBL on order, I would get it UNCHECKERED and then do it myself, or have a professional checker it.

I think they took the automation thing a bit too far.
