Weatherby Vanguard CTG 223 REM | 20 in | Bolt Action

The Weatherby Vanguard CTG is a bolt-action rifle chambered for .223 REM/5.56 NATO. It pairs a 20-inch threaded barrel and a Compact HS Precision stock that features a high-comb cheek piece and a 13 inch length of pull. This configuration suits precision small-bore target work and varmint hunting where a lightweight, accurate platform is desirable. A good optic pairing under $1000 for this rifle would be a Vortex Viper PST Gen II 1-6×24 for versatile target engagement and quick acquisition.
