The Weatherby Vanguard Weatherguard Bronze 7mm PRC Rifle is a bolt-action rifle chambered in 7mm PRC with a #2 contour barrel threaded 1/2-28 (brand part no. VWB7MMPR4T). It pairs a raised-comb Monte Carlo stock in black with bronze webbing with a burnt bronze Cerakote finish, and the cold hammer forged barrel sits on the Vanguard action’s one-piece machined bolt body. Weatherby backs the Vanguard with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee. In 7mm PRC it holds 3+1 rounds with a 1-in-8 twist, a good fit for hunters who want a weather-ready rifle with a threaded muzzle.

Key Specifications
