    Weatherby Vanguard like new in original box. 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum the fastest 6.5/260 caliber made. Like a 6.5 Creedmoor on steroids. Semi bull barrel fluted and threaded. I sighted this rifle in a couple years ago less than 10 shots and never shot it again. Like new.
    Leupold scope rail.
    Original factory box / papers included.
    The rifle with Leupold scope rail is $750 without the scope and rings.
    Include the Warne rings and Burris 4-14 scope with the package for $950.
    Will not sell scope and rings separate if not wanted I’ll keep them - worth far more then $200 bucks - only offering that deal to the buyer if wanted.
    Very accurate rifle had it sighted in at 250 yds in less than 10 shots. The 6.5-300 has same velocity at 400 yards that the Creedmoor has at the muzzle.

    $750 rifle without scope.
    $950 rifle with scope and rings.
    NO TRADES
    Must be legal FL buyer.

    Also, having cash to buy this item is not the basis for a negotiation. It should be understood that cash is the only acceptable form of exchange. No wampum, shekels, Egyptian rugs, or whatever else….cash is required.

    PM me please I don’t pay attention to replies to the post.

    This is more than “a 6.5 Creedmoor on steroids”. It is THE FASTEST commercially available 6.5 there is. Faster than a 26 Nosler. Weatherby doesn’t make anything bad. This is a great gun for someone.
    I have the same rifle, except with a muzzle brake, and absolutely love it. The Berger 156EOL bullets out of this cartridge. Incredible.

    how hard is the ammo to acquire?
    No issues I order from Midway or Buds usually. I just checked Midway it’s all in stock. I sighted it in with the Barnes 127gr. One box will last a long time. I see they now have a 156gr Berger option - that sounds very interesting….

    I shoot the 156gr EOL out of my 6.5-300 and love them. I’m giving up some speed, but man do those bullets pack a punch. The 127 Barnes are something else! Ridiculous speed.
    It’s just a fantastic cartridge
