I have for sale a Weatherby Vanguard 2 in 300 Weatherby Magnum that I rarely shoot and need to fund another project. This rifle was modified with a Boyds Laminated Nutmeg stock with stippled grip areas, two action crossbolts, Pachmayr Decelerator 1" black pad, Edwards Recoil Suppressor, and pillar and glass bedding. The Boyds stock was sent to CDI Precision Gunworks to have the stock modified to accept their detachable magazine bottom metal and three modified magazines were purchased to accept the 300 Weatherby round. A muzzle break was also purchased. Once the modified stock was returned, the barreled action and all metal were sent to Accurate Plating and Weaponry for further work. This included threading the muzzle end of the barrel, installation of the break and fabricating a custom thread protector. All metal was then matte chrome finished. Weaver blued steel bases were then installed. Now the rifle can be fired from the bench using the Boyds Laminated stock and muzzle break and recoil is about like a 7-08. The factory stock, bottom metal and thread protector can be used while hunting, to reduce weight. CDI Precision Gunworks advised that they can also modify the factory stock to accept the detachable magazine bottom metal for a small fee, if so desired. I also have the original box and all paperwork that came with it. I have fired approximately 150 rounds from the bench since its return and with Weatherby factory 180 grain ammo I get consistent 1" groups at 100 yards. I am sure that developing a good handload will reduce the group. It is a very fine shooting rifle and I invested over $1800 to have it built. Price is $1300 and includes free shipping. Your FFL must be willing to accept from a private person. No trades please. Email with any questions and more pictures. Thanks for looking.
