Weatherby VGT350NR00: In the 1960's, Roy Weatherby recognized the need for a more affordable rifle that could chamber his signature magnum cartridges. Having just partnered with Howa to produce Mark V actions and seeing the precision and attention to detail that this Japanese manufacture provided, the Vanguard project was born. Starting with a Howa two-lug push-feed action, a number of Weatherby signature safety features were incorporated, including a fully shrouded bolt and three gas ports on the bolt body, both providing protection in the event of an ammunition failure. A hammer forged barrel brought both accuracy and longevity not typically seen in mass-produced cut-rifled barrels of the day, while the M-16 style extractor gives great purchase on the cartridge rim for consistent and reliable extraction. A fluted bolt body similar to the Mark V creates smoother operation when the rigors of the hunt leave the rifle dusty and dirty. The result was a smooth-running push-feed capable of handling Weatherby Magnums at a price more Americans could afford. The modern Vanguard carries a Sub-MOA accuracy guarantee and ships with a crisp two-stage trigger, making it what feels like what's the best value in the rifle market today. A Monte Carlo stock provides lightweight and durable performance year after year. Its one-piece forged and machined receiver features integral recoil lug for the utmost in strength and structural integrity. One-piece trigger guard with hinged floorplate provides easy access to unfired cartridges in the magazine. The Vanguard rifle also features a specially-fit, low density recoil pad. This technologically superior material significantly reduces felt recoil. Lastly, the three-position safety allows shooter to work the action while safety is still engaged.
While other rifles may talk the talk this one would prefer to walk the walk. For example there are guns that tout being SUB-MOA but this one will guarantee it from its Vanguard action hammer-forged barrel and match-grade trigger. Someone might expect to pay dearly for a guarantee like that but wre proud to say that this is the best value at Weatherby for that degree of accuracy. When taking the Vanguard Synthetic hunting don't think this one has to be babied because of the precision. The Vanguard Synthetic with a Griptonite stock and all surfaces is designed to repel the harshest conditions. - Features INCLUDE: - All Vanguard rifles are guaranteed to shoot a 3-shot group of .99 or less at 100 yards (SUB-MOA) from a cold barrel when used with Weatherby factory or premium ammunition within Two-Years of Verified Purchase Date to Original Purchaser. - Adjustable Match Quality Two-stage Trigger - Fluted Bolt Body - One-piece Machined Bolt Body - Fully Enclosed Bolt Sleeve - Vanguard Recoil Pad - 3-Position Safety - Cold Hammer Forged Barrel - Integral Recoil Lug - Hinged Floorplate - STOCK: - Monte Carlo Griptonite stock - Pistol grip and forend inserts - Right side palm swell (aids shooter comfort and control) - Barrel AND METALWORK: - Bead blasted matte finish - #2 contour barrel
