Weatherby Vanguard Sporter .300 Win Mag
 
Picked up a Weatherby Vanguard sporter as part of a trade. Wood looks really good. Trigger feels really good. Haven't shot it yet. But will try to do that sometime soon here and get some photos posted.


I really have no use for a .300 win mag, so I'll probably look to re-home it eventually or trade it for something else. But, since I've never had a Weathebry I figured I'd put some rounds down range before deciding.


Maybe it'll grow on me.

Here's a few quick photos I took when I brought it home, hopefully they attached properly.

the vangards are generally very accurate, I owned one for decades in 300 win mag , mine had its best accuracy
consistently under 1" 5 shot 100 yard groups ,with speer 165 grain
https://www.speer-ammo.com/bullets/r...65-sptz-bullet
h4831 and fed 215 primers

its not nearly a mark V but its still a good rifle
I gave it to one of my sons who still uses it for mule deer.

Jake if I remember i'll bring up an almost full box of Hornady 300WM cartridges to the camp during bear season for you.

I traded this rifle off.

But it's coming back to me soon.

Looking forward to working with it this summer.

I'm thinking I was born twenty five years too late for the good elk hunting unfortunately!

But yes, it'd be great for that lol
