The Weatherby Vanguard Obsidian in .22-250 Rem provides a robust and precise platform for demanding hunting and shooting applications. This bolt action rifle integrates proven Weatherby engineering with a utility-focused design, ensuring consistent performance in diverse field conditions.
Key Features
Precision Barrel Configuration
The rifle features a 24-inch cold hammer-forged barrel, optimized for the .22-250 Remington cartridge. This manufacturing process contributes to uniform bore concentricity and long-term accuracy potential, crucial for consistent projectile flight and repeatable groups. The barrel length is selected to maximize the cartridge’s high velocity and flat trajectory characteristics.
Responsive Trigger System
An M.O.A. (Match-Grade, Optimally Adjusted) trigger system is standard on the Vanguard Obsidian. This user-adjustable trigger mechanism allows for precise pull weight customization, mitigating shooter-induced error and facilitating consistent shot placement critical for precision applications.
Robust Action and Safety
The Vanguard action incorporates a one-piece machined bolt body with a fluted design, reducing weight and enhancing smooth operation. The integral recoil lug ensures maximum surface area contact with the stock, contributing to stability. A three-position safety provides secure firearm handling, allowing the action to be locked, unloaded with the safety engaged, or ready to fire.
Durable Construction
Engineered for rugged field use, the Vanguard Obsidian features a durable synthetic stock. This material choice provides dimensional stability across varying environmental conditions and resists common wear and tear more effectively than traditional wood stocks. The matte black finish on all metalwork reduces glare, aiding in concealment and corrosion resistance.
