The Vanguard Series 2 in 6.5 Creedmoor arrived as the cartridge was taking the bolt-rifle world by storm. The Howa 1500 action's inherent accuracy combined with the 6.5 CM's ballistic efficiency produces a rifle that punches well above its price class. Sub-MOA accuracy from factory ammunition is routine. One of the most practical hunting-and-target dual-purpose bolt rifles in the lineup.
