Weatherby Vanguard Arctic Pro 223 Rem 24" White Rifle

Same Arctic Pro package, longer tube. The 24 inch cold hammer forged barrel gives 223 Rem every bit of powder burn it can use, and the Vanguard action beneath it carries a SUB-MOA guarantee. White Cerakote covers the metal, which keeps rust off in wet weather and disappears against snow. The synthetic stock is hand painted in an arctic pattern and shaped with a Monte Carlo comb for scope height. A 20 MOA Peak 44 rail is already on the action, and the forend carries an ARCA and Picatinny rail for a bipod.

Long barrel 223 Rem is a varmint setup. Heavier bullets get enough speed to stay stable and shoot flat, and the cartridge is quiet enough on the shoulder to spend a whole afternoon behind it without getting beat up. Ammunition cost is the other half of the appeal, since you can practice with this rifle the way most people practice with a rimfire. The muzzle is threaded, a brake comes with it, and a suppressor threads on in its place when the neighbors matter.
