  Any idea what a Weatherby Vaguard 300 mag. Whitetails Unlimited 2005/2006 edition,#86 of 400 produced with a grey/black laminated monte carlo stock, topped with a Mueller 4-16x50 IGR/AO tactical scope is worth, all are in beautiful condition. The guy wants 600.00 bucks for it, any opinions on this set up would be appreciated .
  Thanks

  I thought they had been discontinued in the mid to late 90's (at least the Howa version, but I saw a Vanguard for sale in a WallyWorld a couple of days ago. Did not handle it, so I could not tell who built it for Weatherby, so I have no real idea of when it was manufactured.
  
  I keep a '98 Blue Book in the office, and according to it, the Vanguard was produced in 10 different versions between the late 70's and '98. It may be still being produced.

  I read recently that The Vanguard is being produced to Weatherby specs in Japan and Wally World is the exclusive distributor. I think that Howa is making the gun.

  The Vanguard Alaskan was mfg. 1993 to 1994 it was the last one made as far as I can tell. The Vanguard Classic 1 was disc. in 1993, The weatherguard with the synthetic stock was mfg.1989-1993.
