Anyone seen a new Wby Vanguard magnum with the 26" barrel yet?

[Why not?]

As well as their "new" 6.5-300 Wby Mag, the 257 Wby, 7mm Rem, 300 Win, and 300 Wby magnums are all coming with 26 inch #2 contour barrels now.

Anyone seen one in Canada?

I'm waiting for them as well, since the 26" barrel removes my only excuse for not getting an Accuguard. The 6.5-300 cartridge is added to the "Select" series where it joins the .257, 270 and 300 on the list of cheap ammo. That's a cost effective way of getting your brass.

The brass was $103 for 40 , not bad?

When it is added to the "select" list, expect to pay $55 or so per box of factory ammo. That would loaded with the Norma made Spitzer bullet.

For now, you have to do what you have to do.

Well, it's not like your only going to use them once.

Well, anyone seen a 26 inch Vanguard yet? The 24 inch 300 Wby are not hard to find.

I have a Weatherby Vanguard Select 300 win mag with a 26" barrel I bought from Prophet River about 2 or 3 months ago, the Vanguard Select is the same rifle as the regular Vanguard but with a black stock without the pistol grip and forend inserts, I prefer this one over the regular stock. I'm pretty sure Prophet River can order a Weatherby vanguard with a 26" barrel for you.

6.5-300Wby?
Lol....I say it needs at least 30"+ long barrel other wise all the rifle can do is being another flame thrower....
Also I would make sure that spare barrel is at hand, one for load development the other for hunting!
I say the powdered charcoal should be just around slow enough as a propellant....
What's next? 22-300Wby?
