Weatherby VC38223RR4T Vanguard Shadow 223 Rem 5+1 24″ Carbon Gray Cerakote Threaded Barrel, Carbon Gray Cerakote Steel Drilled & Tapped Receiver, Black w/Gray & White Accents Monte Carlo Stock

Description

The Weatherby Vanguard Shadow 223 is a bolt action in .223 REM/5.56 NATO with a 24" barrel, a 1:8 twist and 5-round capacity plus one chambered.

A long barrel gives the cartridge room to build velocity, at the cost of handling in tight spaces and some added weight. That is the standard twist for this cartridge, and it stabilizes the bullet weights most factory ammunition is loaded with.

The .223 REM is commonly chosen for varmints, predators and target work. Cheap, widely available and light on recoil, which makes it an easy cartridge to shoot well.

This is a serialized firearm. It ships to a licensed dealer near you rather than to your door, and you complete the transfer there with a Form 4473 and a background check. State and local rules govern what can be shipped where, so check yours before ordering – and if you are unsure, ask us first.
