I did pick up another Vanguard in 30-06 last night, so I guess I did pretty good. I did get stiffed today, though. I went to one of the local Walmarts after some of the Leupold binoculars that are on closeout. Brickseek shows that they have 2 in stock, and THEIR OWN scanner says that they have 2 in stock, yet somehow NOBODY could find them! My suspicion is that one of the employees pigeon holed them somewhere, either for themselves, or for one of their buddies.

My suspicion is that one of the employees pigeon holed them somewhere, either for themselves, or for one of their buddies. It's a shame, but a reality at many Walmarts. I got "lucky" in dealing with one of the only employees at my local Wally that actually wasn't a dolt. He was very helpful the first evening I purchased two rifles. Then, I went back 2 days later to buy two more and was happy to deal with the same employee. I also was "lucky" in dealing with a good employee who was very helpful at another store 45 miles away, where I purchased a wood stocked .270. Looks like the inventory in my area is pretty well wiped out. I feel thankful and fortunate to have gotten in on the deal. Thanks once again to the OP and to the thread over at AR-15.com with all the brickseek links.

Well even though I swore off the 243 I got the last Vanguard synthetic they had, I guess if I don't hand it off for a Christmas present I could use it as a coyote rifle. Or maybe to be rebored to 358 Winchester.

Local Walmart has them for 349,12 Miles way they had one left at 249 in 243.
Local wouldn’t budge on the 349 price.

I've been telling you dumb schits to buy Vanguards/Howa's for years. I guess they just needed a $249 price tag to get you to bite. I had one before. It was a .257 Bee. It was the first Gen though.

Yes, those are the ones. If you use zip code 38506, you'll see that it STILL shows 2 in stock at the Algood Walmart.

Picked up a 243, I’m confused on everybodies good trigger reports. The on I got is horrid. 2 stage and then it breaks once without Going off then about another 3 pounds of pressure and it goes. I guess I’ve been shooting jewels and even Timneys to long. Everything else seems fine but I im going to not start at the start and see how it goes. I love a two stage trigger. Take it over the hump, refine the sight picture, then break it. I understand people have difficulty getting used to that and try to treat it as one long squeeze. The two stage trigger doesn’t bother me. This one feels like 3 stages though.
