Weatherby Vc38350Nr0O Vanguard Shadow 350 Legend 5+1 20" Carbon Gray Cerakote #2 Standard Barrel, Carbon Gray Cerakote Steel Drilled & Tapped Receiver, Black W/Gray & White Accents Monte Carlo Stock

The Weatherby Vanguard Shadow in 350 Legend is a mid-range rifle built for hunters who want modern ergonomics, reliable accuracy, and a platform that handles the latest straight-wall cartridges. Chambered in 350 Legend—a cartridge that's gained serious traction in regions with specific hunting regulations—this Vanguard delivers the dependable accuracy Weatherby has built its reputation on, in a compact, handy package that works well for everything from deer stands to brush hunting. The 20" barrel keeps the rifle nimble without sacrificing ballistics, while the carbon gray Cerakote finish protects the steel against the elements and looks equally at home in a truck rack or a backcountry camp.

The Shadow's Monte Carlo stock features a two-tone finish—black with gray and white accents—that balances tactical aesthetics with classic hunting lines. The drilled and tapped receiver arrives ready for optics, so you can get to the range without additional gunsmithing. At 5+1 capacity, you've got enough ammunition on board for hunting situations while keeping the profile manageable in thick cover. The #2 standard barrel profile hits the sweet spot between weight and rigidity for a rifle meant to be carried as much as it's shot.

If you're working in a state or region where 350 Legend has become the straight-wall standard, or if you're building a modern hunting rifle that bridges the gap between traditional and current regulations, the Vanguard Shadow delivers proven Weatherby quality in a configuration that makes sense for today's hunting landscape. Solid trigger control, honest accuracy, and a platform that won't let you down—that's what you get here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 350 Legend a good choice for deer hunting?

Yes. The 350 Legend is a modern straight-wall cartridge that's become popular in states with straight-wall hunting regulations. It delivers reliable performance on medium game when properly placed, and its popularity reflects real-world effectiveness in hunting situations.

Does this rifle come with a scope or mount?

The receiver is drilled and tapped, meaning it's factory-prepared for standard rifle scope bases and rings, but the scope is sold separately. This gives you flexibility to choose the optic that fits your hunting setup.

What's the magazine capacity?

The Vanguard Shadow holds 5 rounds in the magazine plus 1 in the chamber, giving you 5+1 capacity for hunting.

Why choose the 20" barrel length?

A 20" barrel keeps the rifle compact and handy for brush, stand, and backcountry hunting while retaining solid ballistic performance. It's a proven compromise between portability and velocity, especially practical if you're carrying the rifle as much as shooting it.
