There's something about a walnut-stocked bolt gun in .25-06 that just feels right, and the Weatherby Vanguard Sporter nails it. The .25-06 Remington has been a favorite of deer and antelope hunters for generations because it shoots flat, hits hard on medium game, and stays gentle on the shoulder. The 24 inch #2 contour barrel gives the cartridge room to stretch its legs and pick up the velocity it's known for, and it comes threaded from the factory in case you want to add a suppressor or muzzle device down the road.
Weatherby guarantees this rifle will print a three-shot group of .99 inch or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel with Weatherby factory or premium ammo. That confidence comes from the cold hammer forged barrel and the match-quality two-stage trigger, which breaks clean and adjusts down to 2.5 pounds. The action uses a one-piece machined and fluted bolt body with a fully enclosed bolt sleeve, plus an integral recoil lug for consistency shot after shot. A 3-position safety lets you cycle the bolt to unload with the safety still engaged, which is a feature plenty of hunters appreciate on a cold morning.
The Monte Carlo stock is cut from Grade A Turkish walnut with a satin finish, fine-line checkering, a raised comb, and a rosewood forend cap. It's the kind of wood that gets compliments at the range and holds up in the field. The barrel, receiver, and trigger guard wear a matte bead blasted blued finish that cuts glare without looking cheap.
Capacity is 5+1 through a hinged floorplate magazine, so there's no detachable box to lose in the truck. The receiver is drilled and tapped and ships without sights, ready for the scope of your choice. At roughly 7.75 pounds bare, it carries well for a 24 inch barreled rifle and settles nicely on sticks or a pack.
Yes. Weatherby guarantees a three-shot group of .99 inch or less at 100 yards from a cold barrel when fired with Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. The rifle even ships with a factory-shot target as proof. The cold hammer forged barrel and adjustable two-stage trigger are big reasons it can hold up that promise.
It ships without iron sights, which is standard for a hunting rifle in this class. The receiver is drilled and tapped, so you just need bases and rings for your scope. Most owners top a .25-06 like this with a 3-9x or 4-12x optic and call it good.
Yes, the 24 inch #2 contour barrel comes threaded from the factory, so you can mount a suppressor or muzzle brake without a trip to a gunsmith. It ships with the threads protected, and the long barrel still lets the .25-06 reach its full velocity potential.
The .25-06 is a flat-shooting, mild-recoiling cartridge that shines on deer, antelope, and similar medium game, and it doubles nicely as a long-range varmint and coyote round with lighter bullets. Recoil is noticeably softer than a .270 or .30-06, which makes it a great pick for newer hunters or anyone who shoots a lot. Paired with this 24 inch barrel, it delivers the velocity the cartridge is famous for.
