NO LONGER IN PRODUCTION
Growing up in the Weatherby family is an honor, and I’m proud to say I make that happen by being among the most affordable Vanguards available today. Plus, my unique adjustable spacer design lets me grow bigger as young shooters grow older.

There aren’t many who can reinvent themselves every day, but this one can.

The Vanguard Stainless Synthetic was developed to be the ultimate weatherproof gun at a great value. Designed with a matte bead blasted stainless steel barrel, a coated Vanguard action, and a polymer griptonite stock, this gun meets and exceeds Weatherby’s high standard of accuracy and rugged dependability.
The Vanguard Camilla Rifle—“designed by women, built by Weatherby”—incorporates a high comb, along with a number of other features that make this rifle superbly comfortable to shoot. Aptly named after the first lady of Weatherby.
Barrel/Receiver/Trigger Guard – Matte, bead blasted, blued finish
Stock – Satin finish, Turkish A-grade walnut with rosewood forend and grip caps

One of my favorite guns for the Adirondack’s and catskill forest. Lightweight and dependable is what this is. Very accurate under inch with nosler accubond

I bought this rifle to hunt with this year out of my ground blind. When I went to the sporting good store to look at it, it was light and came up smoothly and fast to the shoulder. I like the color of the stock. I bought it in 6.5Creedmore. When I took it to the range, it shot very accurately at a hundred yards. You can cover the group with a quarter. I was using Norma Whitetail with a 140 gr tip. At two hundred yards, the group was slightly bigger, but it could have been me. It is very impressive for a 20in barrel. I would recommend this to other people and friends. For the price, you can’t go wrong. I got a doe at 80 yards with it. It went right down.
