Weatherby VHS223RR0T Vanguard Obsidian 20" 6-Round Bolt-Action Rifle

The Weatherby VHS223RR0T Vanguard Obsidian 20" 6-Round Bolt-Action Rifle delivers precision and reliability for tactical applications, sport shooting, and ranch defense. Engineered for shooters who demand accuracy at extended distances without unnecessary weight, this .223 Remington platform bridges the gap between compact maneuverability and effective ballistic performance. The 20-inch barrel balances velocity retention with handling ease, making it ideal for situations where speed of target acquisition and portability matter as much as terminal performance.

Built on Weatherby's proven Vanguard action, this bolt-action rifle features a cold-hammer-forged barrel that ensures consistent shot-to-shot grouping and extended service life in high-round-count environments. The Obsidian finish provides superior corrosion resistance in humid or coastal climates, critical for gear that must remain mission-ready without constant maintenance. Weighing just 7.4 pounds, the 20-inch configuration reduces fatigue during extended patrols or field operations while the 6-round detachable magazine offers quick reloads without breaking your shooting position—a practical advantage over fixed-capacity designs.

This rifle suits law enforcement precision riflemen, military designated marksmen, and civilian tactical shooters who prioritize sub-MOA accuracy in a lightweight package. The .223 Remington cartridge delivers minimal recoil, enabling fast follow-up shots and reducing shooter fatigue during extended shooting sessions. Standard Picatinny rail integration allows mounting of quality optics and tactical accessories, while the compact 49-inch overall length facilitates storage in vehicles or tight operational spaces—essential for teams working from urban environments or vehicles. Chambering in 5.56 NATO-compatible ammunition ensures supply-line compatibility across military and commercial sources.
