I have a Weatherby XXII semi-auto that I got when I graduated from high school 40 yrs ago. It is a very nice gun that shoots very well. I don't know if they have plans to bring it or something like it back. The new XXII is an Anschutz 64 actioned bolt gun. Anschutz has a well earned rep for accuracy.
