Product Overview
The Weatherby Vanguard Camilla in .223 Remington represents a purpose-built bolt action rifle designed with specific ergonomic considerations. This model integrates Weatherby’s proven Vanguard action with a meticulously crafted stock geometry, providing enhanced control and a natural point of aim for discerning shooters.
Key Features
Optimized Ergonomics
The Camilla stock is engineered to address the unique interface requirements of shooters seeking a tailored fit. It features a reduced length of pull, a more open radius grip, and a raised comb, facilitating consistent eye alignment and mitigating felt recoil by distributing energy efficiently. This design promotes a stable shooting platform and improves shooter comfort during extended field use or range sessions.
Weatherby Vanguard Action
At its core, the Vanguard Camilla utilizes the robust Weatherby Vanguard bolt action. This system features a one-piece fluted bolt with three gas vents and a fully enclosed bolt sleeve, enhancing operational reliability and shooter safety. The 90-degree bolt throw provides ample clearance for optics, while the match-grade, user-adjustable M.O.A. trigger system allows for a crisp, predictable break, optimizing shot placement.
Precision Barrel Integration
Each Vanguard Camilla is equipped with a cold hammer-forged barrel, ensuring structural integrity and consistent bore dimensions. This manufacturing process contributes directly to repeatable accuracy, a critical factor for precision marksmanship. The .223 Remington chambering is ideal for varmint control, target shooting, and light game, offering a flat trajectory and manageable recoil impulse. Backed by Weatherby’s Sub-MOA accuracy guarantee, this rifle consistently delivers sub-1-inch groups at 100 yards with premium ammunition.
Durable Construction
This configuration features a classic blued steel finish on the barrel and receiver, providing a traditional aesthetic with robust corrosion resistance. The Monte Carlo-style wood stock, with its fine checkering, offers a secure grip and contributes to the rifle’s balanced handling characteristics.
