Key Features
Precision Performance
The Vanguard Sporter is backed by the manufacturer’s SUB-MOA guarantee, ensuring a 3-shot group of .99 inches or less at 100 yards when utilizing specified Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. This precision standard is a direct result of Weatherby’s manufacturing processes and component selection, providing a consistent and verifiable performance baseline for demanding users.
Ergonomics & Control
An adjustable Match two-stage trigger allows for a crisp, predictable break, enhancing shot placement and shooter interface. The Grade A Turkish Walnut Monte Carlo stock provides a classic aesthetic while offering a stable and ergonomic platform, optimizing the rifle for various shooting positions. A three-position safety mechanism ensures secure operation and positive control during handling and transport.
Construction & Finish
This rifle features a 24-inch, #2 contour barrel, threaded for muzzle device integration and finished with a bead-blasted bluing for reduced glare and enhanced durability. The matte blued steel receiver is factory drilled and tapped, facilitating immediate and secure optic mounting solutions. The overall matte blued finish provides a non-reflective, durable surface capable of withstanding field conditions.
