So I will be taking my recently purchased Weatherby Vanguard DGR 375 H&H rifle on a moose hunt to Northern BC this September. Being that I am a rifle tinkerer and this is a very expensive hunt, I am trying to customize this rifle to provide the very best tool for the job for this hunt.

I ordered an in stock McMillan Grey Marble Sako Classic Stock for the rifle to replace the factory B&C stock. I also ordered a replacement Timney to go in place of the factory trigger. I am going have the barreled action glass bedded in the new stock.

Metal wise, it may not be needed, but to be safe I am going to have the smith install a side bolt stop in place of the factory option. Lastly, I am going to Cerakote the entire barreled action in Graphite Black.

The rifle has steel 2 piece warne bases, Leupold PWR steel rings, and a VX-R 2-7X33. In the event of a scope failure, it has the factory express sites to fall back on.

Am I missing anything? Would you do anything different?
