Weatherby Vanguard Obsidian Rifle, 6.5 PRC, 24-Inch Barrel

The Weatherby Vanguard Obsidian rifle in 6.5 PRC with a 24-inch barrel (brand part no. VTX65PPR4T) pairs Weatherby’s classic Vanguard design with a graphite black Cerakote finish across the barrel, receiver, bolt, bolt knob, and safety. Weatherby builds the rifle around a weather-resistant black polymer Monte Carlo stock for a comfortable, secure grip in rugged terrain and adverse conditions. A 1-in-8-inch twist barrel suits heavier 6.5 PRC bullets for long-range accuracy, and a 3-position safety gives fast, intuitive operation. Among long-range bolt action rifles, this Vanguard Obsidian configuration favors 6.5 PRC shooters who want Weatherby accuracy at an approachable price.
