Availability: In Stock
The Weatherby Vanguard Black Hills in 7mm PRC with a 20-inch barrel is a modern hunting rifle built for shooters who demand accuracy and reliability in tough conditions. This bolt-action rifle combines Weatherby's proven Vanguard platform with purpose-built ergonomics and weather-resistant construction, making it a solid choice for mountain hunts, long-range shooting, and situations where dependability matters. The 7mm PRC cartridge delivers flat trajectory and energy retention, ideal for medium to long-range game.
The Black Hills edition stands out with its clean, functional design: a matte blued finish on the barrel, receiver, bolt, and safety that resists corrosion without the gloss, paired with a black polymer Monte Carlo stock accented in green and tan. The ergonomic stock delivers a comfortable, natural grip and provides a stable platform for consistent shot placement whether you're shooting prone at the range or in the field.
Accessory mounting is straightforward thanks to the optics-ready Picatinny rail on the receiver and an Arca/Picatinny adapter on the foreend—both supplied by Peak 44. These standard mounting points let you add optics, bipods, slings, and other gear without guesswork or gunsmithing. The compact 20-inch barrel keeps weight reasonable and maneuverability high in thick cover or rocky terrain, while the 7mm PRC chambering gives you modern ballistics in a rifle that handles like a purpose-built hunter.

7mm PRC is a modern magnum rifle cartridge known for flat trajectory, high velocity, and consistent energy retention at distance. It's well-suited for hunting medium to large game and for long-range target shooting where velocity and accuracy are priorities.
A 20-inch barrel keeps overall rifle length and weight down, making it easier to carry through timber, cross obstacles, and maneuver in vehicles or tight cover. The trade-off is slightly lower velocity than a longer barrel, but the compact form factor is a major advantage for mountain and backcountry hunts.
Yes, the Weatherby Vanguard Black Hills includes a muzzle brake (noted as MB in the model designation). This helps manage recoil and can aid in follow-up shot control.
