Weatherby Vanguard Sub MOA in 257 Weatherby Mag. Wearing a Weaver Kaspa 4x16 scope in Leupold mount. Timney trigger , As new condition, 143 rounds fired. This is not a wal mart vanguard. The sub MOAs were selected after test firing at the factory, bedded in a B&C stock and labeled on the floorplate. Looking for 1000 tacos or possible trade on Marlins.
Dies and brass available.
I am in Amarillo, but have been known to travel a bit
Thanks for looking

Bump for a nice rifle. I sure like this, but have too many already.

24" bbl,
stock is made by B&C for weatherby sub MOAs

factory details below

"Because we factory-shoot every Vanguard rifle, we know that a number of exceptionally accurate Vanguards are produced each year," says Brad Ruddell, Weatherby's vice president of sales and marketing. "Armed with this knowledge, we decided to take Vanguard's accuracy guarantee to the next level. We hand-pick factory test-fired targets with a maximum of .75-inch groups, so we can be certain of our .99-inch-or-less-MOA guarantee."

To help achieve this standard, rifles selected for the sub-MOA treatment are fitted with a 24-inch, No. 2-contour, cold-hammer-forged steel barrel. The barreled action is then mounted in a pillar-bedded stock composed of Aramid, fiberglass and unidirectional graphite fibers. The butt is capped by a Pachmayr Decelerator pad, and "SUB-MOA" is emblazoned on the hinged floorplate. Sub-MOA Vanguards are available in right-hand versions only, in your choice of black or tan synthetic stocks.

I see that now. Thanks! I wish they built them without that in the Vanguard.
