Weatherby Vanguard Badlands | 6.5 Creedmoor | 22″ | VAP65CMR2T

The Weatherby Vanguard Badlands pairs a proven Vanguard action with the Badlands Approach camouflage and a Burnt Bronze Cerakote finish for a rifle built around concealment and accuracy. It ships with a Monte Carlo synthetic stock with a raised comb and an adjustable two-stage trigger for consistent shot release. The barrel is cold hammer-forged, threaded, and matched to a fluted bolt body and a hinged floorplate; the receiver is drilled and tapped for optics. For an optic under $1,000 that complements this rifle’s intended uses, consider the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 1-6×24 for its versatile magnification range and rugged construction.

Common applications for this rifle include precision-focused hunting and long-range target shooting where camouflage and accuracy matter.
