3 reviews for Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s Exclusive Vanguard®

  1. George Pena –

    Purchased the 257 WM sighted in with the Barnes 100grTTSX the barrel loves them. My W Vanguard 7mm RM loves the Barnes TSX as well very happy.

  2. Karl –

    Purchased this rifle in 30-06. After shooting in the barrel it holds at MOA groups. Next is developing hand loads with different recipes for the perfect load. Shoots very well, trigger is smooth, action is smooth. All in all a very well built rifle and two whitetails to its credit so far.

  3. Paul R –

    Bought this rifle in 308. It is sub-moa accurate, and the trigger is a dream right out of the box. I looked at other brands of rifles in the same price range, but they felt cheaply made in comparison. So far, I am very happy with the purchase. Looking forward to first hunt.
