Weatherby Vanguard Wilderness

The Vanguard Wilderness rifle is accompanied with an accuracy guarantee; when using premium ammunition, it will produce a three-shot group measuring 0.99-inch or less at 100 yds. from a cold barrel. Aiding this assurance is a cold-hammer-forged, matte, bead blasted, blued finished barrel. Twenty-four inches in length, the free-floating barrel is fluted to save weight, which helps the Wilderness rifle tip the scales at just 6.75 pounds. The Wilderness rifle is also available with a drop-box magazine (DBM) as an option on certain chamberings, and this option will reduce the weight of the rifle to 6.5 pounds. The heart of the Wilderness rifle, the renowned Vanguard action, is affixed to a hand-laminated, raised comb Monte Carlo, carbon fiber composite stock with full length aluminum bedding plate, matte gel coat finish, and spiderweb accents. As with other Vanguard rifles, the Wilderness is equipped with a match-quality, two-stage trigger that’s user adjustable pull weight. It also has the familiar three-position safety and fluted bolt with dualopposed locking lugs of its siblings. Hand-laminated, raised comb Monte Carlo, carbon fiber composite stock with aluminum bedding plate, matte gel coat finish, and spiderweb accents. Weight saving, fluted, 24” barrel. Matte, bead blasted, blued finish. Weighs just 6 3 pounds– ideal for long treks on wilderness hunts. Optional detachable box magazine available in .240 Wby., .25-06 Rem., .270 Win., and .30-06 Sprg. Detachable magazine reduces rifle’s overall weight by 1/4 pound, as compared to standard bottom metal.
