Weatherby Vanguard Badlands Rifle, .308 Winchester, Burnt Bronze Cerakote, 22-Inch Threaded Barrel

The Weatherby Vanguard Badlands rifle in .308 Winchester with a Burnt Bronze Cerakote finish (brand part no. VAP308NR2T) was the first production rifle to feature the Badlands Approach camo pattern, whose adaptive coloration and multi-layer visual confusion blend into varied terrain and lighting. Weatherby cold hammer-forges the 22-inch #2-contour barrel and threads the muzzle for a brake or suppressor, and a 5+1 capacity feeds from a hinged floorplate magazine. An adjustable match-quality two-stage trigger and a fluted, one-piece machined bolt with a fully enclosed bolt sleeve round out the action, and a three-position safety and integral recoil lug complete the build. Among camo-patterned bolt action rifles, this Vanguard Badlands configuration favors hunters who want an adaptive camo pattern with a match-grade trigger.
