Key Features
Precision Performance
The Vanguard Sporter is backed by the manufacturer’s SUB-MOA performance guarantee, ensuring a 3-shot group of .99 inches or less at 100 yards when utilizing specified Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. This commitment to accuracy positions the rifle as a reliable instrument for precision shooting applications. The adjustable Match two-stage trigger system provides a crisp, predictable break, enhancing shot placement consistency.
Robust Construction
This rifle features a 24-inch, #2 contour barrel, bead blasted blued for a non-reflective finish and enhanced durability. The barrel is threaded, facilitating the direct integration of muzzle devices such as suppressors or compensators. The receiver is constructed from steel, finished in matte bluing, and factory drilled and tapped to simplify optics mounting. A three-position safety mechanism provides secure operational control, allowing the action to be locked or cycled with the safety engaged.
Classic Ergonomics
The Grade A Turkish Walnut Monte Carlo stock provides a traditional interface, designed for optimal cheek weld and consistent sight picture acquisition. The classic walnut finish pays homage to established firearm aesthetics while offering a stable and comfortable shooting platform.
