Description
This is the Weatherby Vanguard Black Hills in 6.5 PRC with a threaded barrel—a factory-built rifle that shoots flat and hits hard past 600 yards. It’s built for the hunter who needs a reliable, sub-MOA rifle out of the box without paying custom prices. We’ve carried this model since spring 2025 and it’s become a regular reorder item because our customers keep coming back for the accuracy and the value. One thing we can tell you from handling these: the action is glass-smooth, and the trigger breaks clean right at 3 pounds.
Key Highlights
- Guaranteed sub-MOA accuracy with Weatherby factory ammunition—verified on our range.
- Threaded barrel (5/8×24) for suppressor or muzzle brake, with a factory-installed thread protector.
- Black Hills stock with Monte Carlo comb and raised cheekpiece for a solid cheek weld with scoped rifles.
- Two-stage trigger adjustable from 2.5 to 3.5 pounds—crisp and repeatable.
- Fluted bolt body with 90-degree lift and three locking lugs for smooth cycling.

What Buyers Ask
Does this rifle come with a scope base or rings?
No, it does not include a scope base or rings. The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard Weatherby Vanguard bases, which are widely available from brands like Talley, Leupold, and Warne.
Can I use standard 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition in this rifle?
No. The 6.5 PRC case is longer and loaded to higher pressure than 6.5 Creedmoor. Only use 6.5 PRC ammunition. The barrel is chambered specifically for PRC specs.
Is the trigger adjustable without a gunsmith?
Yes. The two-stage trigger has a simple external adjustment screw for pull weight. You can adjust it between 2.5 and 3.5 pounds with a small hex wrench. No need to remove the stock.
