[QUOTE="Broz, post: 397093, member: 7503"] The vanguard is a Howa 1500 action. The Mark V is a Wby action with the 9 locking lug bolt. Both are great actions in my book. Yes, if it is chambered for a Wby cartridge it will have freebore. If it was a vanguard in a non-wby round like a 25-06 it would not have the freebore. Weatherby has changed barrel makers over the years. The year it was made will determin what barel. I will add, I am a fan of the Vanguards. The two I still own and all I have owned before have shot very well. Jeff [/QUOTE]
