*SOLD* Weatherby Vanguard .270 Win Black 24" *INCREDIBLE SERIES 2 MODEL*
Bryant Ridge'sn Analysis:
The Weatherby Vanguard Series 2 chambered in .270 Winchester stands as a testament to the brand’s dedication to dependable performance and refined craftsmanship, all while maintaining an accessible price point. Originally introduced in the late 1960s as a way to offer Weatherby-quality rifles in non-Weatherby calibers, the Vanguard has since become the backbone of the company’s lineup—outpacing the flagship Mark V in sales. This particular model features a 24-inch hammer-forged barrel, known for its exceptional accuracy and longevity, characteristics that set it apart from typical cut-rifled barrels. Its two-lug bolt action incorporates several key safety features borrowed from the Mark V, including a recessed bolt face that encapsulates the cartridge and a fully shrouded bolt with three gas ports, ensuring protection in the event of an ammunition failure.
Functionality meets elegance in the rifle’s design. The checkered walnut Monte Carlo stock not only adds classic aesthetic appeal but also improves shooting ergonomics with a raised comb ideal for scoped shooting. The black finish paired with a fluted bolt body gives the rifle a sleek, modern look while enhancing smooth cycling in dusty or adverse field conditions. The M-16 style extractor provides strong, consistent case extraction—crucial during fast-paced hunting scenarios. Pre-installed scope rings make it easy to mount your preferred optic, and the rifle’s balanced weight and handling make it a versatile option for hunting medium to large game. Whether in the field or displayed in a collection, the Weatherby Vanguard in .270 Win is a reliable, attractive, and capable bolt-action rifle that lives up to the brand’s storied reputation.
