The Weatherby Vanguard Arctic Pro in 6.5 Creedmoor (brand part no. VC4865CMR18B) is a Bill Hicks Exclusive edition built on Weatherby’s SUB-MOA-guaranteed Vanguard platform, pairing a compact, cold hammer-forged, Cerakoted 16-inch barrel with a match-grade trigger for consistent, precise performance. Weatherby threads the barrel for a suppressor or the included muzzle brake, and equips this Arctic Pro edition with premium Peak 44 accessories: an optics-ready 20 MOA Picatinny rail on the action and an ARCA/Pic rail on the stock’s fore-end. The weather-resistant synthetic stock uses an ergonomic Monte Carlo design with a hand-painted sponge camo finish done in Sheridan, Wyoming, and the barrel, receiver, and trigger guard wear a Hidden White Cerakote finish. Among compact hunting rifles in the bolt action rifles category, the Vanguard Arctic Pro favors hunters who want a shorter, maneuverable rifle in a proven flat-shooting cartridge.
