Weatherby Vanguard Outfitter Full Size Bolt Action Rifle
The Weatherby Vanguard action has established itself over five decades as a reliable and robust platform, incorporating an integral recoil lug for enhanced structural integrity and repeatable precision. The Vanguard Outfitter model builds upon this legacy, designed specifically for rigorous demands encountered in high-altitude and rugged terrain hunting scenarios.
This iteration, an evolution from the Vanguard High Country, features a modernized Cerakote finish complemented by a hand-applied sponge paint pattern. It integrates a spiral-fluted barrel, enhancing heat dissipation and reducing weight without compromising rigidity. Shooters can expect the consistent performance of the Weatherby Monte Carlo synthetic stock, a crisp Two-Stage trigger, a hammer-forged threaded barrel, a secure 3-Position safety, and a robust M16-style extractor for reliable cycling.
