Weatherby Vanguard Black Hills 223 Rem 16" 5+1 Bolt-Action Rifle

The Weatherby Vanguard Black Hills is a purpose-built bolt-action rifle chambered in .223 Remington, blending Weatherby's renowned accuracy with a rugged, threaded-barrel platform ready for suppressor or muzzle-device use. Designed for precision and control, the Black Hills edition delivers an ergonomic platform that produces consistent shot placement in any environment.

At the heart of the rifle is a 16" heavy threaded barrel with a matte blued finish and a 1:8" twist rate, ideal for stabilizing a wide range of .223 Rem bullet weights. The barrel is capped with a muzzle brake to tame felt recoil, and the matte blued steel receiver is machined with an integrated Picatinny rail for straightforward optic mounting. The crisp bolt-action is paired with an adjustable trigger and a 3-position safety for confident, controlled operation.

The Black Hills wears a Peak 44 Monte Carlo polymer stock finished in a black base color with green and tan accents, offering a comfortable, natural feel and a stable platform for consistent precision. The Monte Carlo profile features a raised comb for proper eye alignment with mounted optics. With a 5+1 capacity, an overall length of 36", and a total weight of 7.30 lbs, the rifle is well-balanced for both field carry and prone shooting. No iron sights are installed, leaving the shooter free to mount their preferred scope or red dot on the included Picatinny rail.
