I have a vanguard 308 with synthetic stock and really like it. It’s not the lightest rifle but it feels and looks like the quality of a higher price range of gun. I shoot very close to minute of angle at 300 yds with Winchester power point ammo. Just happened to be the cheapest I could find. There was a vanguard in the classifieds for a pretty good deal I thought. Chickenrig may have been the seller. The wood stock vanguard’s are very nice looking
