Description
This Weatherby Vanguard Weatherguard Bronze in .223 Remington with a 24-inch barrel is a solid, no-nonsense rifle for hunters and shooters who need a reliable bolt gun that handles rough weather without breaking the bank. We’ve been stocking these since early 2026, and repeat customers come back for this one — that tells you something about the value. The Weatherguard finish sheds moisture and corrosion, so you can hunt in rain or snow without worrying about rust. At 2.1 oz on our scale, it’s a lightweight build that carries easy in the field.

Does this rifle come with a scope or scope base?
No scope included. It comes with a factory-installed Picatinny rail base, so you can mount your own rings and scope right away. We recommend a low-to-medium ring height for most .223 optics.
Is the .223 Remington the same as 5.56 NATO?
No. This rifle is chambered for .223 Remington only. Do not use 5.56 NATO ammunition — it runs at higher pressure and can cause damage. Stick to .223 Rem for safe operation.
What kind of accuracy can I expect with factory ammo?
We’ve seen sub-MOA groups with quality 55-grain match loads from Federal and Hornady. With standard hunting ammo, expect 1–1.5 MOA. The two-stage trigger helps keep shots tight.
