The .25-06 Remington has been quietly filling freezers for decades, and it makes a whole lot of sense in a rifle like the Vanguard Outfitter. It shoots flat, hits hard enough for deer and antelope way out there, and does it all without beating up your shoulder. Weatherby gave this chambering a 24 inch barrel with a 1:10 twist, which lets the cartridge stretch its legs and burn all that powder the way it was designed to.
The barrel is cold hammer forged and spiral fluted, which trims weight and adds surface area to help it shed heat between shots. The muzzle is threaded 1/2×28 and ships with Weatherby's Accubrake installed, so recoil on this already mild cartridge is almost an afterthought. Every Vanguard carries Weatherby's Sub-MOA guarantee, meaning it will print a three-shot group under an inch at 100 yards with quality ammo. The two-stage match trigger is adjustable down to 2.5 pounds, and the three-position safety lets you cycle the bolt with the safety engaged, a feature worth having when you're unloading at the truck after a long sit.
All the metalwork wears Graphite Black Cerakote, one of the toughest finishes going for rain, snow, and the general abuse a hunting rifle picks up over the seasons. The tan Monte Carlo synthetic stock gets a hand-applied brown and white sponge pattern, so no two look exactly alike, and the raised comb puts your eye right behind a scope. Textured grip panels keep things planted with cold or wet hands, and swivel studs come standard for slings and bipods.
There are no iron sights on this one, and that's by design. The receiver is ready for scope bases, so plan on pairing it with a quality optic in the 3-9x or 4-12x range and you'll have a walk-anywhere rig for pronghorn flats or ridgeline mule deer. With a 5+1 capacity and 48.25 inches of overall length, it balances well and carries easy for a full-size sporter.
Yes. Weatherby backs every Vanguard with a guarantee that it will shoot a three-shot group of .99 inch or better at 100 yards with premium factory ammunition. The cold hammer forged barrel and adjustable two-stage trigger do a lot of the heavy lifting there, and plenty of owners report groups well under that mark once they find a load their rifle likes.
No, this rifle ships without sights or an optic. The receiver is set up to accept scope bases, so you'll want to add mounts and a scope before heading to the range. A quality variable in the 3-9x or 4-12x range is a natural match for what the .25-06 does best.
You can. The 24 inch barrel is threaded 1/2×28, and the included Accubrake spins off so you can attach a suppressor or another muzzle device. Just double check that your can or its mount matches the 1/2×28 thread pattern.
It's a fantastic all-around cartridge for deer, antelope, and hogs, and lighter bullets make it a capable long-range varmint round too. It shoots very flat with modest recoil, which makes accurate field shooting easier. Paired with this rifle's brake and Monte Carlo stock, it's about as pleasant as a full-size hunting rifle gets.
