I’m wild about technology, especially when it can help me with a little weight loss. With a light carbon fiber composite stock and strategic fluting on my barrel, I’m a lot easier to carry on challenging big game hunts.
The Vanguard Badlands is the first production rifle to appear in the popular Badlands Approach® camo. The Approach pattern uses adaptive coloration to construct a neutral color palette that adapts to your surrounds and lighting conditions.

I was born in the backlands. Flatlands bore me. Give me mountains. Put me to the test on rugged ridges. Trust me in the harshest environments on planet earth. Hunting that country is what I live for – just like you.
Seth Hammon –
Great gun, lightweight and very accurate. I followed the break in procedures on the website and it shoots very well, well under 1 inch groups at 100 yards. I took a star because there was a burr in the throat that was causing the rounds to not extract, and had to have a gunsmith run a reamer in it to clear it out. Would still recommend this gun to anyone.
