The Weatherby V-Guard Talon is engineered for uncompromising performance in demanding field conditions. Purpose-built to integrate the lightweight characteristics of the Backcountry 2.0 family into the robust Vanguard platform, the Talon provides a precision-oriented, reduced-mass solution for experienced enthusiasts and competitive shooters operating in expansive, remote environments.
Key Features
Optimized Lightweight Construction
The Talon features a Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock, weighing only 19 ounces, establishing it as one of the lightest production stocks available. This design optimization results in a rifle that is over a full pound lighter than standard Vanguard models, with an overall starting weight of 6.2 pounds. This significant mass reduction facilitates extended carry and maneuverability without compromising structural integrity or shot placement consistency.
Advanced Recoil Mitigation
To ensure repeatable accuracy and operator comfort, particularly with potent cartridges, the Talon integrates both an Accubrake and a 3D Hex Recoil Pad. This combination effectively mitigates felt recoil, allowing for rapid target reacquisition and maintaining shot discipline even when employing Weatherby’s high-performance magnum calibers.
Field-Proven Utility
Designed for situations where every ounce and every shot counts, the Talon’s robust construction and weight-optimized profile ensure reliability and precision. It is an instrument built for the discerning individual who requires a durable, accurate platform capable of performing after strenuous high-country ascents or prolonged field deployment.
