I am tougher than an elephant’s hide and as dependable as the sunrise. From recoil pad to muzzle, every part of me is designed to persevere. Let’s start with that recoil pad: It’s a Pachmayr Decelerator, mounted to an indestructible Gryptonite® stock with inserts at the forend and pistol grip. Bedded in the stock is my famous Vanguard action and a cold hammer forged barrel crafted from 410 Series stainless steel. It’s even bead blasted to keep me looking pretty. Choose me and I promise: You’ll own me forever.

Looks & performance
Bought a vs2 stainless in 30.06 2yrs ago. Had a leupold vx2-3x9x40 scope mounted & bore-sighted to 100yds. Recently changed to a factory griptonite stock & engraved nylon sling. Now it’s the best looking rifle I’ve ever owned. Using federal 165gr. nosler partition, the 1st three shots were moa with 2 shots dead center @ 100yds. No adjustment needed. The bolt cycle is the lightest & smoothest of all rifles I’ve ever fired. It’s my belief I’ll never need another rifle.
Thanx Weatherby. -

Beautiful Gun...Light weight...Killer stock...Perfect balance
Waited a long time to get a Weatherby and I have owned and shot Remingtons,Winchesters,Mossberg,Ruger and others...Save your money and buy a Weatherby Vanguard S2...It will be the one gun you will never sell or trade to move up to a better Rifle ! I find myself wanting to add a new Model in a long distance Caliber ASAP...but my 30.06 is super versatile.This is a wonderful company with superior products and Customer service. They also have a Custom machine shop which I plan on using soon to have an Accubrake installed to make the first shot the only shot, it reduces recoil upwards of 50% !!! Its a long review, but at 61 years I have some Tribal knowledge I enjoy sharing.

Deadly Accurate - Affordable
I purchased a Vanguard in 300 Win Mag in 2013. I've been very impressed with the accuracy of this rifle especially for the price. Shoots sub-MOA with multiple types of factory ammo. Tested it to 500 meters at the range and killed a mule deer at 435 yards.
