Weatherby Vanguard Camilla Wilderness - 243 Win - 20" - Green/Black Fiber Glass Stock:

The Vanguard Camilla Rifle "designed by women, built by Weatherby" incorporates a high comb, along with a number of other features that make this rifle superbly comfortable to shoot. Aptly named after the first lady of Weatherby.

The goal of the Camilla line of Weatherby rifles was to purpose-build a system that would accommodate the ergonomics of women and smaller-stature shooters. Countless hours of research, testing, and engineering went into the production of the line which undoubtedly led to a more comfortable and accurate platform. The graceful lines not only look amazing but are befitting of the way the stock fits female shooters. It features a shortened 13" length of pull, slender forearm, a slimmer grip with a gentle palm swell, and a higher comb for optimal scope-eye alignment. The recoil pad is fitted with an ergonomic cant to nest into the way a woman's shoulder is built.

Guaranteed Sub-MOA Accuracy

All Vanguard rifles are guaranteed to shoot a 3-shot group of .99" or less at 100 yards (SUB-MOA) from a cold barrel when used with Weatherby factory or premium ammunition within Two-Years of Verified Purchase Date to Original Purchaser.

Two-Stage Trigger

Robust adjustable match quality, two-stage trigger (adjustable down to 2.5 lbs.) with a clean break.

3-Position Safety

Safely unload rifle or have bolt locked. 3-position safety allows for two safe position to ensure bolt is locked.

Compact Monte Carlo Stock

Length of pull shortened to 13". Grip angle has been changed and made more slim and a slight trigger finger guide groove has been added for improved grip ergonomics. A shorter, slimmer forearm grip with right side palm swell for better balance and fit. A higher comb to properly align a shooters eye with optics. Recoil pad has been given a negative angle, has been reduced in size and the toe canted away from the body to better fit a smaller shoulder.

.243 Winchester:

The .243 Winchester (6x52mm) is a popular sporting rifle cartridge. Initially designed as a varmint round, it may be used for wildlife and game such as coyote, blacktail deer, whitetail deer, mule deer, pronghorn, and wild hogs. It can also be used against larger game such as black bear or elk, but is sometimes said to be "too light" for such large game. Rounds of at least 90 grains are better suited for hunting larger game while rounds less than 90 grains are more suitable for varmints. The .243 is based on a necked down .308 cartridge case

Suggested Use:
  • Predators
  • Small Game
  • Varmint
  • Deer (short range)

Performance:

The .243 produces a velocity of 2,960 feet (902.21 m) per second with a 100-grain (6.6 gram) projectile from a 24-inch (610 mm) barrel. Commercially loaded .243 ammunition is available with bullet weight ranging from 55 grains (3.6 g) up to 115 grains (6.8 g). Twist rate of barrel is the major deciding factor in which bullets to use, 1:10 being the most popular as it is sufficient to stabilize up to 100-gr. bullets. However, for VLD (very low drag)-profile and bullets heavier than 100 grs., a 1:8 or 1:7 (for 115-gr. VLD bullets) is necessary.
