[QUOTE="Broz, post: 845469, member: 7503"] I started my Weatherby collection over 30 years ago. I didn't have much money, but I wheeled and dealed until I took a very nice used Vanguard Deluxe home in 20-06. The rifle was a 1/2 moa gun from the go with 85 gr Nosslers. It took many whitetail for me. Later the load changed to the 110 gr Accubond and that is the load for it today which it shoots equally well. No fancy work has been done to it. Just a little bedding in the front lug area of the factory stock, and free float on the barrel. I have since owned probably 100 Wby rifles. This included a collection of 5 panel Lazermarks from .224 to 460, an array of Accumark's and Deluxe's. I had a beautiful .308 Vanguard Deluxe with dark wood to die for. I rebarreled it to 6mm-284 and it drove tacks. That barrel is gone now and the rifle is rebarreled and restocked into my 6mm BR. The action is very smooth and the rifle shoots awesome. Of all these Wby's that have come and gone, only 3 remain in the safe. The Vanguard in 25-06, the 6 br and a stainless 340 in an oiled Lazermark stock. The Howa action is a very good action and I have yet to see one not shoot well. Jeff [/QUOTE]
