Overview
The Weatherby Vanguard Sporter chambered in 7MM Remington Magnum delivers consistent sub-MOA precision for demanding field applications and target engagement.

It is specifically configured for shooters who require a balance of power, accuracy, and traditional aesthetics.
Key Features
Weatherby Vanguard Action
The Vanguard action is engineered for strength and consistent operation. It features a one-piece forged bolt with a fluted body to mitigate binding and ensure smooth cycling. The fully enclosed bolt sleeve contributes to enhanced safety, directing gas away from the shooter in the event of a case rupture. Integral to this system is the M.O.A. trigger, which is user-adjustable down to 2.5 pounds, facilitating precise shot placement through a clean, crisp break.
Precision Barrel Integration
This rifle incorporates a 24-inch cold hammer-forged barrel, ensuring structural integrity and consistent bore dimensions for optimal projectile flight. The #2 Sporter contour balances maneuverability with sustained accuracy during extended firing sequences. This barrel configuration, combined with the Vanguard action, is backed by Weatherby’s Sub-MOA accuracy guarantee, ensuring that the rifle will produce a 3-shot group of .99″ or less at 100 yards with premium ammunition.
Ergonomic Sporter Stock
The Vanguard Sporter features a classic profile stock designed for positive handling and effective recoil mitigation. Its traditional lines provide a stable shooting platform, while the integrated recoil pad effectively absorbs energy from the 7MM Remington Magnum cartridge, enhancing shooter comfort and follow-up shot capability. The design promotes consistent eye alignment and a secure grip for operational control.
