Weatherby has partnered with Outdoor Women Unlimited (OWU) and its official publication, BLAZE Magazine, by giving away a WBY-X Blaze rifle to a current OWU member. All current members are automatically entered for a chance to win the rifle, donated by Weatherby.

“Our partnership is based on a common goal: Introduce women to the outdoors and help educate them so they have the best possible experience,” said Jen Rodman, marketing coordinator for Weatherby, Inc

WBY-X rifles are built on the popular Vanguard Series 2 platform, which is guaranteed to shoot SUB-MOA (a three-shot group of .99-inch or less) with Weatherby factory or premium ammunition. These rifles offer a lightweight, composite Monte Carlo stock; match quality, two-stage trigger; and three-position safety. The Series 2 Blaze features the Boneyard Camo Legends Blaze pattern and 24-inch cold-hammer-forged barrel. MSRP is $749

OWU is dedicated to providing women and families with the education and excitement of outdoor experiences through teaching outdoor life skills, sharing the knowledge of natural resources, building self-esteem, strengthening character and promoting self-reliance in a safe and professional environment.

Only current OWU members are eligible to participate in the WBY-X Blaze giveaway. The entry period ends Nov. 1, 2014. No purchase required. For more information, go to outdoorwomenunlimited.org or visit the Facebook page at facebook.com/OutdoorWomenUnlimited.
