Overview
The Weatherby Vanguard Weatherguard in 7mm Remington Magnum is engineered for robust performance and consistent precision in demanding environmental conditions. This bolt action rifle integrates Weatherby’s proven Vanguard action with enhanced material treatments, providing a durable and accurate platform for extended field use. Its design prioritizes operational reliability and shot-to-shot consistency, making it a utilitarian choice for discerning shooters.
Key Features
Precision Engineering
The core of the Vanguard Weatherguard is its cold hammer-forged, 24-inch #2 contour barrel. This manufacturing process ensures exceptional bore concentricity and uniformity, critical for mitigating projectile instability and achieving consistent accuracy. Mated to Weatherby’s robust two-lug Vanguard action, it facilitates smooth, reliable feeding and positive extraction. The integral recoil lug is meticulously bedded for maximum stability and reduced felt recoil. A match-quality, two-stage trigger system is factory-tuned to deliver a crisp, predictable break, enabling precise shot placement.
Environmental Durability
All external metal surfaces, including the barrel, receiver, and bolt, receive a durable bronze Cerakote finish. This advanced ceramic-based coating provides superior resistance to corrosion, abrasion, and chemical exposure, ensuring the rifle’s operational integrity in harsh weather and challenging terrain. The rifle is equipped with a synthetic Griptonite stock, featuring textured panels for a secure, non-slip grip under various conditions. This polymer stock is impervious to moisture and temperature fluctuations, preventing warp or shift that can compromise accuracy over time.
Performance Guarantee
Each Weatherby Vanguard Weatherguard is backed by the manufacturer’s robust guarantee of SUB-MOA (Sub-Minute-of-Angle) accuracy at 100 yards, when utilizing premium factory ammunition. This performance standard is a direct result of Weatherby’s stringent manufacturing processes and material selection, ensuring the rifle performs to its specified precision capability, backed by a comprehensive warranty.
