Weatherby vanguard accugaurd

[Ridge86]

Anybody own one of these, how does it shoot? Let me know what you think!

I do not own one nor shot that particular model.
However, like all Vanguards it is made by Howa in Japan. I've never seen a Vanguard or Howa 1500 (same action)that wouldn't produce tight groups.

Maybe my Vanguard was a fluke, but the best shooting rifle I ever owned was a Vanguard 223. With a Vortex Viper and handloads, I shot under a half MOA. Best group ever was 3 shots in .75" at 300 yards. On the other hand, I had a Howa 1500 223 that struggled to hold 1 MOA.

My wife shoots an accuguard in 6.5-300. Very accurate with factory barnes loads. My bro in law has one in 300 why that I handles for and it is also a good shooter. Both are around .5-.7 moa

I didnt proof read that very well. My wifes gun is an accuguard in 6.5-300 and it shoots weatherby brand 127 gr lrx barnes bullets at about .7 moa.

My brother in law has one in 300 wby that I have handloaded for and it will shoot close to half moa.

I will also just say I have 3 other vanguards and they all beat the factory accuracy guarantee.
