Weatherby Vc38300Nr4T Vanguard Shadow 300 Win Mag 3+1 24" Carbon Gray Cerakote Threaded Barrel, Carbon Gray Cerakote Steel Drilled & Tapped Receiver, Black W/Gray & White Accents Monte Carlo Stock
The Weatherby Vanguard Shadow in 300 Win Mag is a modern hunting rifle built for shooters who want serious power without the weight or fuss. This bolt-action rifle pairs a 24-inch threaded barrel finished in carbon gray Cerakote with a drilled and tapped receiver, giving you a platform ready for optics and suppressor-ready from the box. The 3+1 capacity (three rounds in the magazine plus one in the chamber) suits long-range and dangerous-game hunters who plan their shots deliberately.
Weatherby engineered this rifle around accuracy and durability. The carbon gray Cerakote finish protects against corrosion and abuse in the field, while the Monte Carlo stock in black with gray and white accents strikes a balance between classic rifle lines and tactical aesthetics. The receiver is drilled and tapped to accept standard scope mounts, so mounting your optic takes minutes, not a trip to the gunsmith. The threaded barrel opens options for sound suppressors or muzzle devices—a practical choice for backcountry hunters and range work alike.
The 300 Winchester Magnum is a proven long-range and medium-to-large-game cartridge. Paired with Weatherby's Vanguard bolt-action design, this rifle delivers the precision and power serious hunters expect. Whether you're setting up for a hunt at distance or putting rounds downrange at the bench, the Shadow gives you a no-nonsense, modernized platform without the price tag of premium custom builds.
