6.5-300 Wby Vanguard #18293838 03/29/23 Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 28,172 Here Or There luv2safari OP Campfire Ranger OP luv2safari Campfire Ranger Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 28,172 Here Or There The price was great, and I'm too rickety to get hammered by my 300 Wby anymore, so I sent off a check for this Vanguard in the long-shooting 6.5-300 Wby. It has factory camo and a 26" fluted barrel. Does anyone know this model's name? Last edited by luv2safari; 03/29/23.

You are going to love it , too bad you didn't live closer, I know a gunstore that sells a lot of weatherby ammo and cheaper then anywhere I have seen on line. He does not ship .
