Description
Weatherby’s Vanguard rifles are guaranteed to shoot a 3-shot group of .99″ or less at 1 yards (SUB-MOA) from a cold barrel when used with Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. Vanguard rifles are equipped with a match quality, two-stage trigger (adjustable down to 2.5 lbs.) and a 3-position safety, with the middle position allowing the shooter to work the action while safety is still engaged.The Vanguard action incorporates a one-piece machined bolt body, fluted for reduction in weight and bearing surface area, while eliminating binding for smooth action. Three gas ports allow high-pressure gases to escape laterally in the event of an accidental case rupture, and the massive M-16-style extractor ensures reliable and positive extraction. Vanguard rifles have a one-piece machined receiver featuring an integral recoil lug for the utmost in strength and structural integrity, along with a one-piece trigger guard with a hinged floorplate for easy access to unfired cartridges in the magazine. The lightweight, composite Monte Carlo Griptonite stock has pistol grip and forend inserts and a right side palm swell aids in control and shooter comfort. It has a bead blasted matte metal finish and a #2 barrel contour. The Vanguard Stainless Synthetic uses 41 series stainless steel. This model has a gray stock with black inserts and a 26″ barrel.
