Weatherby Vanguard CTG .243 Win 20″ Threaded | VC26243NR2B

The Weatherby Vanguard CTG is a compact, truck-friendly rifle built on Weatherby’s shortened Camilla stock and paired with the reliable Vanguard action. It features a 20-inch threaded barrel and a shortened 13-inch length of pull, making it suitable for tight quarters or for shooters who prefer a shorter stock. Chambered in .243 Winchester, the platform is intended for lightweight, fast-handling field use where maneuverability matters. For optics, a mid-range variable such as a Vortex Diamondback 4-12×40 provides an effective balance of clarity and versatility while staying well under $1000.
