The Weatherby Vanguard® Synthetic Compact in 22-250 Remington is built for shooters who want fast handling, dependable accuracy, and low recoil in a compact package. Featuring a 20-inch #1 contour threaded barrel with a matte blued finish, a matte blued steel receiver that’s drilled & tapped for optics, and a black adjustable synthetic stock, this full-featured rifle delivers the agility you want in close quarters and from field positions—without giving up precision on small targets at distance. With a 5+1 capacity and the flat-shooting reputation of 22-250 Rem, this Vanguard is tailor-made for varmint, predator, and range duty.
Caliber: 22-250 Remington • Capacity: 5+1 • Barrel: 20" #1 contour, threaded, matte blued • Receiver: Matte blued steel, drilled & tapped • Stock: Black adjustable synthetic • Model: VYT222RR0T • UPC: 747115456512
Why the Vanguard Synthetic Compact Stands Out
Compact 20" #1 Contour Barrel (Threaded)
The shorter 20-inch barrel keeps overall length down for faster handling in brush, vehicles, and tight stands. The #1 sporter contour stays light and lively, while the factory threading lets you add a muzzle brake or suppressor mount (where legal) to tune recoil and muzzle rise.
Thread Pitch Note: Common small-bore thread pitches include 1/2×28; always verify your rifle’s serialized spec card for the exact pitch before purchasing devices.
Matte Blued Steel for Real-World Durability
Both barrel and receiver wear a matte blued finish that resists glare and blends into the field. The steel receiver is drilled & tapped so you can mount your preferred base/rings and get on glass quickly.
Adjustable Synthetic Stock
The black synthetic stock is built for hard use with weather-resistant construction and an adjustable length-of-pull system to dial fit. That means better eye relief, steadier cheek weld, and improved control for youth, smaller-framed shooters, or anyone layering seasonal gear.
22-250: Flat, Fast, and Proven
The classic 22-250 Remington is beloved for flat trajectories and minimal wind drift with varmint-weight bullets. Expect excellent results on coyotes, fox, prairie dogs, and paper when you feed this rifle quality ammo and pair it with the right optic.

What You’ll Notice in the Field
Fast Shouldering, Easy Carry
The compact barrel and lightweight #1 contour make this Vanguard quick to mount and easy to pack across long sets or walking varmint country.
Less Recoil, More Control
22-250’s modest recoil promotes faster spotting of impacts through the scope. Add a brake to the threaded muzzle to flatten the impulse further.
Confidence at Distance
Pair high-BC .224 bullets with good dope and you’ll enjoy flat flight and predictable wind calls across typical predator and varmint distances.

Ranch & Property Rifle: Quick, accurate shots with minimal pelt damage (bullet dependent)
Training & Range Days: Low recoil and strong accuracy potential encourage more practice
Small-Framed / Youth Shooters: Adjustable stock supports proper fit and fundamentals
Smart Setup Recommendations
Optic: Lightweight 3–12×, 4–16×, or 2.5–15× with a fine reticle and side focus
Muzzle Device: Brake, comp, or suppressor-ready mount (verify pitch)
Rings & Base: Quality steel or aluminum; torque to spec and use witness marks
Ammo: Test 40–55gr varmint loads for speed; try 60–75gr (twist permitting) for wind resistance
