The Weatherby Vanguard Outfitter .270 Winchester rifle (brand part no. VHH270NR6B) is a bolt-action built by Weatherby for hunters who want a rugged, accurate rifle finished for real backcountry use. A cold hammer-forged, spiral-fluted barrel cuts weight and helps the rifle cool faster between shots, and every Vanguard is backed by a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee of a three-shot group under an inch at 100 yards. The straight-fluted bolt uses a fully enclosed bolt sleeve that redirects high-pressure gas away from the shooter in the rare event of a case rupture or pierced primer, and the two-stage trigger adjusts down to 2.5 pounds for a clean break. Finished in a hand-painted, sponge-pattern Cerakote over a Monte Carlo stock, the Outfitter is built to handle everything from whitetail draws to open-country mule deer hunts.
