Why not? Better stock, Triggertech, cerakote, better action, better safety, cheaper ammo, better ammo availability, similar performance at moderate hunting ranges... etc, etc...

oxn i'm not gonna argue with you bud and you spend all the money you want.but, as far as i know the mark 5 wbys still use a b&c medalist stock just like my vanguard and my vanguard has cerakote. i also don't think action strength should be brought up as the creed won't stress either action. like i said if i'm buying a mark 5 it'll be in a wby specific caliber that i can't get in a vanguard s2. i don't know this for a fact but i'd bet the mark 5 9 lug action has to be heavier than the opposing lug vanguard s2.
good luck and buy what you want bud,
