I've seen the Stainless Synthetic and the Blue Synthetic. Anyone seen the Walnut, Blue, 257WBY Vanguard yet? If so Please!!! let me know. Not the Mark V, Need it for a trip, and don't have the money for the Mark 5.
Thanks

  You might also look at the Howa, since I believe they make the Vanguard for Weatherby, maybe not the exact same options and calibers. Still, either is a good, solid rifle.

  Allechalley is correct, Howa makes the barreled action for the Weatherby Vanguard. You may be hard pressed to find a Howa in 257 Weatherby mag . Another option is to find a 25.06 and have it rechambered to 257 Weatherby. You would also have to have the bolt face opened up to take a magnum shell.

  Today I picked up my .257WBY Blue Walnut Vanguard Sporter! I put a Leupold VX-ll 3x9 small dot on it for something different. Now all I have to do is sight it in, pack, and with any Luck find a respectable Antelope Buck this October. I wish I could get my wife to pay me for all this hard work!!![^]
