Precision components that matter

At the core of the Vanguard Talon is a cold hammer-forged barrel, a manufacturing method that promotes uniform rifling and durability. That barrel, combined with Weatherby’s chambering and headspacing standards, supports sub-MOA groups at 100 yards when paired with premium ammunition. The rifle’s two-stage match-grade trigger offers a predictable, clean break that shooters trust for repeatable accuracy, while the fluted bolt body reduces weight and improves cycling smoothness under load.

Ergonomics and recoil control

The Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock contributes more than just weight savings—its geometry is designed for tripod and off-hand stability. Recoil is tempered by a 3DHEX recoil pad that disperses energy; together with a three-position safety, the Vanguard Talon is set up for secure handling in dynamic environments.
