Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

The Vanguard has been earning its keep in deer camps since 1970, and the Black Hills edition might be the best-equipped version of it yet. Weatherby took the proven two-lug push-feed action, hung a cold hammer forged barrel on it, and backed the whole thing with their Sub-MOA guarantee: a three-shot group of .99 inches or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel with quality factory ammo. That's not marketing talk, it's a written promise, and it's part of why the Vanguard line has such a loyal following.
This version comes dressed for work. A Peak 44 Picatinny rail sits on the receiver ready for your scope rings, and there's an Arca/Pic adapter on the forend for a bipod or tripod head, so you're not buying and fitting bases before your first range trip. The Monte Carlo synthetic stock wears a hand-painted black finish with green and tan sponge accents, done by the Weatherby crew in Sheridan, Wyoming, so no two look exactly alike. The raised comb lines your eye up naturally behind a scope, and the match-grade two-stage trigger is adjustable if you like it a touch lighter. A three-position safety lets you cycle the bolt with the safety on, which is a feature worth having when you're unloading in the field.
The 7mm Remington Magnum has been flattening trajectories and filling freezers for over 60 years, and it remains one of the best all-around choices for Western big game. The 1:9.5 twist barrel is threaded 1/2×28 and ships with a muzzle brake installed, which takes real bite out of magnum recoil at the bench. Feeding from a 3+1 hinged floorplate setup at 7.8 pounds bare, this rifle carries reasonably for a magnum and settles down nicely on a rest.
Matte blued metal and a polymer stock mean rain, snow, and horseback miles won't rattle it. Mount glass, find the load it likes, and this Weatherby will be a one-and-done hunting rifle for a long time.
Yes. Like all current Vanguard rifles, the Black Hills is guaranteed to print a three-shot group of .99 inches or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel when fed Weatherby factory or premium factory ammunition. The cold hammer forged barrel and two-stage match trigger do a lot of the heavy lifting to make that happen.
It is. A Peak 44 Picatinny rail comes installed on the receiver, so all you need are rings and glass. There's also an Arca/Pic adapter on the forend, which makes attaching a bipod or clipping into a tripod quick and painless.
The barrel is threaded 1/2×28 and ships with a muzzle brake installed, so you can spin the brake off and mount a suppressor with the appropriate adapter or a direct-thread can that matches the pitch. The brake is a nice touch for range days since it tames a good chunk of the 7mm Rem Mag's recoil.
It's one of the classics for exactly that job. The 7mm Remington Magnum shoots flat, hits hard at distance, and has ammo on nearly every shelf in the country. Paired with this rifle's 1:9.5 twist, it handles the heavier, high-BC bullets that Western hunters favor for longer shots.
