When the weather turns ugly, the Weatherby Vanguard Weatherguard is just getting warmed up. Built for hunters who refuse to let rain, snow, mud, or harsh terrain slow them down, this rifle combines Weatherby's legendary SUB-MOA accuracy guarantee with a Tactical Gray Cerakote® finish that protects against corrosion and the elements.
Chambered in the time-proven .30-06 Springfield, this rifle delivers the versatility needed for everything from whitetail and hogs to elk and larger North American game. The 22-inch cold hammer-forged threaded barrel provides excellent durability and precision while allowing easy installation of your preferred muzzle device or suppressor (where legal).
The Griptonite® Monte Carlo synthetic stock offers a secure grip in wet or cold conditions, while the adjustable two-stage trigger breaks cleanly for consistent shot placement. Combined with a one-piece forged receiver, M16-style extractor, and 3-position safety, the Vanguard Weatherguard is built to perform season after season, no matter what Mother Nature throws at it.
