Anyone shoot one? I've heard nothing but good reviews and just purchased one in a 7mm Rem Mag.

I haven't shot it yet but seems that most complaints are the weight of the gun, which doesn't bother me since it's a 7 mag so recoil won't be as bad. I had a Remington 700 in a .270 before this one.

Yeah I love mine. Nothing has taken more than 2 steps before dropping. Heres the meat talley on it to date:
2 fallow buck
2 fallow doe
1 black buck (female). Shot it in the chest and it had 4 entry and exit wounds. Came out behind front shoulder and back in and out of rear flank.
1 red stag doe
2 aoudad

Nice for a production gun. Well built, good trigger, accuracy guarantee

I have a heavy barrel S2 in .308 Win and it is probably my favorite rifle to shoot. I've put around 250 rounds through it and will say it definitely shoots under 1" groups at 100 yards with hand loads. Took 4 deer with it this year with 4 pulls of the trigger. Shots ranged from inside of 50 yards to 225 yards. Can't say how it does with factory ammo as hand loads are all I have put through it. Excellent fit and finish for the price range. It is a great factory stock with raised cheek. There is no creep in the two-stage adjustable trigger.
The WBY S2 is a high quality rifle for the $. Wouldn't mind picking up another in .257 WBY.
