Weatherby Series 2 Vanguard Rifle


One of the treats at the Gun Blogger Rendezvous was this Weatherby Series 2 Vanguard rifle in .223.  Allen took it to the range for all to try, and he set up targets at 100 yards so folks could see how it shot. Shooters used it from a shooting bench, but had to support it in their hands, with their elbows on the table.  I looked at several targets, and most of them had a three shot group with just over an inch spread. I am satisfied that most would have shot under an inch if they had a rest under the front end of this rifle. I didn't get any video of this gun in action, but I see that Jeff Quinn of Gunblast.com has reviewed one chambered in .257 Weatherby. Jeff gives us a good look at it, and we get to enjoy watching him shoot it.
