What’s Included
- Weatherby Vanguard Series 2 Synthetic bolt-action rifle
The heart of this rifle is a 24" chrome-moly steel barrel that is cold-hammer-forged for uniform rifling and long service life. Its matte-blued finish matches the forged steel receiver, both built to withstand harsh hunting conditions.
Weatherby’s Series 2 action features a fluted one-piece bolt with a gas-venting design for added safety. The 3-position safety lets you load, unload, and carry with confidence, while the internal 4-round hinged floor-plate magazine keeps cartridges secure and accessible.
The trigger is a user-adjustable, two-stage unit set at a crisp 2.5 lb pull, contributing to Weatherby’s sub-MOA guarantee when using premium ammunition. Combined with the .240 Weatherby Magnum cartridge, shooters can expect flat trajectories and reliable terminal performance on medium game.
A Monte Carlo fiberglass-composite stock with right-hand cheekpiece and gray spider-web finish provides a solid, weather-resistant grip. Sling swivel studs and a cushioned recoil pad come installed, making field carry and follow-up shots comfortable.
The receiver is drilled and tapped for optic bases, allowing quick customization for scope mounting. At an MSRP of $549, this Japan-made Vanguard Series 2 offers notable accuracy and build quality in a distinctive Weatherby chambering.
