Weatherby Vanguard Talon | .300 WBY Mag | 24 in

The Weatherby Vanguard Talon is a lightweight bolt-action rifle built to bring Backcountry-level weight savings to the Vanguard line while retaining Weatherby accuracy guarantees. It pairs a Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock and a cold hammer-forged, fluted barrel with performance features such as an adjustable two-stage match trigger and a three-position safety. For optics under $1,000 that match this rifle’s precision potential, consider the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25×50 for long-range work and glassing in variable light.

Two primary applications for this rifle are long-range precision field use and extended backcountry hunting where weight and reliable magnum performance matter.
