Weatherby Vanguard Obsidian 243 Win 22" 4+1 Bolt-Action Rifle

The Weatherby Vanguard Obsidian is a full-size bolt-action hunting rifle chambered in .243 Winchester. Built on the proven Vanguard action with a blued drilled and tapped stainless steel receiver, the Obsidian carries the line's classic styling in a weather-resistant, field-ready configuration featuring a black Monte Carlo synthetic stock and a 22-inch #2 contour blued threaded barrel.

The cold hammer-forged 22" threaded barrel accepts a standard muzzle device or suppressor, and the 1:10" twist stabilizes a wide range of .243 Win bullet weights from lightweight varmint projectiles up through heavier controlled-expansion hunting bullets. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mount bases, with no iron sights included so the rifle is configured with the optics of the shooter's choice.

Shooting controls include an adjustable two-stage match trigger for a crisp, clean break and a classic 3-position safety that allows the bolt to be cycled with the safety engaged for safe unloading. An M16-style extractor provides reliable feeding, and the hinged floorplate on the internal box magazine holds 4+1 rounds of .243 Win.

The black Monte Carlo synthetic stock is shaped for a consistent cheek weld across optic choices, and the package weighs 7.40 lbs with an overall length of 42" - a manageable carry for spot-and-stalk western hunts or a quiet walk through the deer woods. From varmints and predators to whitetail and antelope, the Vanguard Obsidian is a flexible .243 Win platform built around the established Vanguard action.
