Description
The Weatherby Vanguard Sporter rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor with a 24-inch threaded barrel and Grade A Turkish walnut stock (brand part no. VDT65CMR2T) pays tribute to Weatherby’s classic walnut styling. Weatherby guarantees the Sporter to shoot a 3-shot group of .99 inches or less at 100 yards with specified factory or premium ammunition, backed by an adjustable two-stage Match trigger and a 3-position safety. The bead-blasted, matte blued steel receiver is drilled and tapped, and the Monte Carlo stock design supports a consistent, comfortable cheek weld. A detachable box magazine holds 4+1 rounds. Among sub-MOA-guaranteed bolt action rifles, this Vanguard Sporter configuration favors hunters who want proven accuracy with traditional walnut styling.
