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. The buttstock is angled away from the body, which is a better fit for the female anatomy and nestles easily into the shoulder. The slim pistol grip has a shorter grip-to-trigger reach, ideal for slightly smaller hands, and the 13 inches length of pull (LOP) and slender fore-end reduce overall weight and length without compromising feel and balance. A combination that makes this a super-fast-handling rifle that is also easy to carry.

Features:

  • SUB-MOA accuracy guarantee (0.99 inches or less 3-shot group at 100 yds when used with Weatherby factory or premium ammunition)
  • Adjustable match quality, 2-stage Trigger
  • Fluted bolt body
  • 1-piece machined bolt body
  • Fully enclosed bolt sleeve
  • Cold hammer forged barrel
  • Integral recoil lug
  • Hinged floorplate
  • Stock is made specifically to fit women
  • Length of pull shortened to 13 inches
  • Grip angle has been changed and made slimmer and a slight trigger finger guide groove has been added for improved grip ergonomics
  • Shorter, slimmer forearm and grip with a right side palm swell for better balance and fit
  • A higher comb to properly align a shooters eye with optics
  • Fleur-de-lis checkering pattern
  • Satin finish, Turkish A-grade walnut with a rosewood forend and grip caps
  • 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 woman’s shoulder
  • Cold hammer forged 20 inches barrel
  • #1 contour

I purchased the camilla in 6.5 creedmoor for my 12yo son and 11yo daughter. Put the Talley light weight, low rings and a leupold vx-2 3x9x40 on. Purchased the Hornady 120 eld m factory rounds. Sighted in at 150yrds and was suprised how well it shot. 3 separate 1/2inch groups at 150. Recoil is more than my daughter can handle, so I am going to load some of the 100gr ELD M myself for her. This was my first Weatherby purchase as I have been a rem 700 man my whole life. I am very pleased with the rifle and will not hesitate to recomend to my friends.

Hunted with a .300 Mark 5 for 35 years and now I’m 76, felt I needed a smaller lighter Weatherby. The 243 Camilla shoots true with a crisp trigger. Love it. Can’t wait for OR deer season.

I didn’t realize I had never shot a rifle that fits until I shot my Camilla. I am in love! It is beautiful and a perfect fit. I cannot say enough positive things about this gun!

Purchased the Camilla in 7mm/08. At the range it consistently shoots 1/4 inch groups at 100 yards using nosler 120 grain ballistic tip factory ammo! Overall fit, finish excellent, and very well balanced. Very impressed, can’t wait for hunting season!

My Wife tried several other rifles (including a Vanguard 2) for an upcoming caribou hunt in Alaska. She’s small so we had the Vanguard cut down to fit her but this made it ‘barrel-heavy’. When we saw the Camilla, she shouldered it and we ordered one in .308 Win. immediately. She tried several bullets/weights and found ‘the’ one her rifle likes. Off to Alaska and one shot at 225 yards downed a very respectable bull caribou. A few weeks later, she bagged an 80.5″ buck pronghorn. Excellent fit, form & function. This is THE only rifle she will ever use.

Purchased the Camilla in 7mm 08 and my wife could not be happier. The fit and finish for this level of firearm is amazing. My wife said the rifle just feels right and should help her confidence in well placed shots. Added a Zeiss 4-14 50mm scope which will make this rifle a great all around hunting tool.

My wife is tall and lean. Having tried many a rifle brand and stock dimensions I bought her a Camilla. It fits her perfectly. I noticed that when she lifts the rifle it naturally sits and conforms bringing eye and scope to alignment. She is no longer making adjustments and fidgeting to get the rifle into a comfortable position. The quality of walnut and rosewood fit is as expected of a Weatherby rifle. We have three others already and I am a big fan and so now is my wife. If she is not picking

Bought this rifle 18 months ago in .308 Winchester because I liked the look of it and the calibre. Put about two hundred rounds through it to date. Best 3 shot group measures less than .3″ with 155 grain match bullets. Great wood on the stock as well. This rifle shoots on par with my old MkV.

Lucky winner @ Friends of NRA Banquet

I won this at a Friends of the NRA banquet and it is not a miniaturized rifle, I look at it as a carbine that fires 7mm 08 rifle ammunition. It’s light, handy and hits under MOA easily past 100 yards. My wife isn’t a hunter, but we both take it to the range and she can out shoot me with it; part of that is the build dimensions of the rifle, and the other part is the moderate recoil and muzzle blast. It has a special set of adornments in the NRA serial number and an engraved magazine floorplate

I bought my wife one of these before our trip to South Africa Last May. She also shoots a Weatherby Mark V in .257 WM and Sako 7mm Rem Mag. but she wanted something lighter and better fit. She shouldered one at Dury’s Guns here in San Antonio and matter of factly pronounced she would take that one to Africa in Cal 7mm-08. So I bought it, mounted a Viper Vortex 4-16 X 44 HS-T scope and left the store–worked up a load using 145 gr Barnes LRX and got the custom turrets for it. In Africa she went 3

I have two confessions and two truths. Confession 1 – I love guns and have a lot of hunting rifles for each unique situation. Confession 2 – I often buy guns first and then do research AFTER I buy them. Yes, I realize that’s backwards but it’s my flaw Truth – I bought my Vanguard Camilla because it “came up” To my shoulder and provided an undefinable comfort which is what I look for first in my hunting rifles. Lastly, I am a MAN and did not realize this is a gun that was designed

We purchased the Camilla 2 ½ years ago and we were instantly in love! The wood grain is beautiful and the rifle itself shoots accurately! I am a bit smaller than other people are ( I’m 4’11”) and this rifle works well even for me. It is chambered in 7mm-08 and I recently took down my first elk with this rifle in one shot. The trigger is nice at a wonderful midpoint and I don’t feel like my rifle moves too much when I pull the trigger. The bolt works smoothly and I have not had a jam or misfire

I do not own one but have the pleasure of shooting the 6.5 Creedmore every year at Ladies Hunting Camp in Oregon. Each year I challenge this rifle more and more in its performance, and every year I am impressed. Sporting a Leupold VX3 scope, this rifle quickly moves from target to target with reloading speed and ease. It is well balanced in weight allowing for accurate shooting off hand, prone, bench or with sticks. Shorter stock makes this a great option for us women hunters. Highly recommend.

I bought a Camilla in 7MM-08 for my daughter so she could come pig hunting with me. She is 5’1” and barely tops 100lbs. The balance and ergonomics of this rifle were exactly what she needed. She loves her “Cami” (as she calls it) and has pig hunted two years in a row with me. It is a very precise and accurate little rifle, and with it she’s felled some sizeable animals. Most of all, her confidence soared when she wasn’t forced to focus her attention on trying to make a man’s rifles work for her
