A quick look at the new Weatherby Vanguard Black Hills, a rifle designed to deliver utmost precision in harsh environments.
Named after the rugged Black Hills of South Dakota, the new Weatherby Vanguard Black Hills rifle was built with tough environments in mind. If you require precision on difficult hunts, this model seems quite worthy of consideration.
Featuring a cold hammer-forged barrel with either a #2 or #3 contour, a Vanguard action and a match-grade two-stage trigger, Weatherby guarantees that the Vanguard Black Hills is capable of sub-MOA accuracy out of the box (.99” or less 3-shot group at 100 yards with Weatherby factory or premium ammunition). Barrel lengths range between 20 and 26 inches depending on the caliber. The rifle also has a three-position safety, an integral recoil lug and a hand-painted Monte Carlo synthetic stock.
Other features of the Vanguard Black Hills include a Peak 44 Picatinny JRAIL for optics, a Peak 44 Arca/Pic Adapter on the forend for accessories like bipods and a threaded muzzle for suppressors or brakes. Every caliber variant ships with an Accubrake ST except for the 350 Legend model. The full list of available calibers includes .22-250 Remington, .223 Remington, .243 Winchester, .25-06 Remington, .257 Weatherby Magnum, .30-06 Springfield, .300 Weatherby Magnum, .300 Winchester, .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum, 7mm Remington, 7mm-08 Remington, 350 Legend and 7mm PRC.
