The Weatherby Vanguard Badlands .30-06 Bolt Action Rifle is engineered for the discerning hunter and precision shooter who demands reliable performance in varied field conditions. This platform integrates proven Weatherby action mechanics with a rugged, application-specific finish, delivering consistent shot placement and enduring operational capability.
Key Features
Vanguard Action Reliability
The Vanguard series is built around a robust, one-piece machined bolt body with a fluted design to mitigate binding and facilitate smooth cycling. The integral recoil lug enhances receiver rigidity, contributing to consistent lockup and shot-to-shot precision. A three-position safety provides secure firearm manipulation.
Precision Cold Hammer-Forged Barrel
This rifle features a 22-inch cold hammer-forged barrel, constructed from high-quality chrome-moly steel. The cold hammer-forging process densifies the steel, optimizing bore uniformity and contributing to sustained accuracy over the barrel’s lifespan. The #2 contour barrel maintains a practical balance for field use without compromising rigidity.
Ergonomic and Durable Stock
The Vanguard Badlands utilizes a synthetic stock, finished in an exclusive Badlands camouflage pattern. This material offers superior resistance to impact, abrasion, and environmental elements compared to traditional wood stocks, ensuring long-term durability. The ergonomic design incorporates a web pattern for enhanced grip and control in adverse weather conditions.
Adjustable Two-Stage Trigger
A factory-tuned, adjustable two-stage trigger system provides a crisp, predictable break, which is critical for maximizing precision. This design allows for fine-tuning to individual shooter preference, ensuring optimal trigger control without compromise to safety.
Protective Finish
Metal components feature a matte blued finish, offering robust corrosion resistance and a low-glare profile suitable for field applications. The Badlands camouflage stock further aids in concealment.
