Weatherby Vanguard S2 Sporter .300 Win Mag Bolt-Action Rifle

Product Description

The Weatherby Vanguard S2 Sporter is a bolt-action rifle chambered in .300 Win Mag with a 24″ #2 Contour barrel. The barrel is cold hammer-forged and has a 1:10″ twist. Weatherby backs the rifle with its SUB-MOA Guarantee.

What sets it apart

The muzzle is threaded 1/2×28, and the rifle is suppressor ready. You can mount a brake or a suppressor without sending the barrel out for work. The bolt body is fluted. The trigger is an adjustable 2-stage, and the safety has 3 positions. A hinged floorplate magazine holds 3+1 rounds.

The stock is checkered walnut with a Monte Carlo comb. The finish is matte blue. Length of pull is 13.5″, and overall length is 44.5″. This rifle has no sights, so plan on adding an optic.

It fits hunters who want a magnum chambering for big game at longer range. It also suits shooters who like a classic walnut and blued rifle with a modern threaded barrel. The receiver is drilled and tapped, so a scope with rings and bases is the natural pairing. A sling and a bipod are common additions for field use. A suppressor or muzzle brake with 1/2×28 threads will fit the muzzle.
