Description
The Weatherby Vanguard Obsidian in .300 Weatherby Magnum gives you a threaded, long-range hunting rifle that’s ready for a brake or suppressor right out of the box. This is a solid, no-nonsense build for the hunter or shooter who wants Weatherby’s proven accuracy in a weather-resistant package. We’ve been stocking these since Q4 2025, and it’s become a steady seller for guys who want a flat-shooting magnum without the custom-gun wait.

What Buyers Ask
Does the barrel come with a thread protector?
Yes, it ships with a factory thread protector installed. If you want to add a muzzle brake or suppressor, just remove the protector — no tools needed beyond a wrench.
Will this fit a Gen4 or Gen5 chassis?
We’ve handled both. It fits Gen5 stocks with no issue. On Gen4 frames, the fit is slightly tighter — not a problem, just a little snug. You might need to apply light pressure when seating the action.
Is the .300 Weatherby Magnum hard on barrels?
Like any high-velocity magnum, you’ll get around 1,200–1,500 rounds of good accuracy before throat erosion becomes noticeable. Keep it clean and let the barrel cool between groups, and it’ll serve you well.
