Gun Descriptions

Weatherby offers 28 versions of its Vanguard rifle, so there's bound to be one to fit your needs. With so many varieties, there are plenty of options – as well as third-party accessories – available for customization, but all Weatherby Vanguard rifles are guaranteed to fire 3-shot groups of .99" or less at 100 yards (SUB-MOA) when used with Weatherby ammo. Weatherby Vanguard rifles also feature two-stage triggers that are honed by hand and then tuned and inspected. The housing is made of an alloy and can be adjusted down to 2.5 pounds. An enclosed sleeve helps redirect gasses and particles in case of rupture and is short to reduce weight. A recoil pad helps reduce strain from shooting. The rifles feature 3-position safeties and are positioned to allow the shooter to work the action while still engaged. This is all built to suit a one-piece machined bolt body, providing maximum strength and structural integrity.

Known for its reliability, the Sako Lite Bolt Action Rifles are great for hunting and target shooting. The Tikka T3 Lite has an all black TrueBody fiberglass reinforced polymer stock and a barrel with a light hunting contour and blued finish. The light but sturdy straight T3 stock is pure Sako innovation combining high performance with light weight ease, and positive checkering for comfort and firm grip in all weather conditions. At the heart of the T3 is the hyper accurate cold hammer-forged barrel, sturdily anchored to a silky smooth action. The trigger is crisp and positive, and is easily adjustable for weight of pull (2-4 lbs).
