Overview

This bolt action rifle integrates advanced design with robust construction to deliver consistent accuracy and exceptional terminal ballistics.
Key Features
Mark V Action System
The Mark V action is renowned for its strength and reliability. This nine-lug design provides superior lock-up, distributing bolt thrust efficiently. A short 54-degree bolt lift allows for rapid cycling and maintains ample clearance for optics. The integral recoil lug enhances structural rigidity, while the fluted bolt body and a three-position safety further optimize operational security and function.
Fluted Stainless Steel Barrel
Precision-machined from stainless steel, the 24-inch, #3 contour barrel is fluted to reduce weight, increase surface area for enhanced heat dissipation, and maintain rigidity. It is free-floated to eliminate contact points with the stock, optimizing barrel harmonics for superior accuracy. A recessed target crown protects the rifling from impact damage, preserving downrange precision.
Composite Stock with Aluminum Pillar Bedding
The rifle features a high-performance composite stock, typically a Monte Carlo style, designed for ergonomic handling and recoil absorption. Crucially, the stock incorporates aluminum pillar bedding. This system ensures consistent metal-to-stock mating, preventing compression and maintaining a stable, stress-free action fit for unwavering shot-to-shot accuracy.
LXX Trigger System
The Weatherby LXX Trigger is fully adjustable, allowing the shooter to set a crisp, clean break point with minimal overtravel. This adjustability is critical for mitigating shooter-induced error and optimizing precision for both competitive and field applications.
.240 Weatherby Magnum Chambering
Chambered in .240 Weatherby Magnum, this rifle leverages one of the fastest commercial 6mm cartridges available. This caliber is characterized by its exceptionally flat trajectory and high muzzle velocities, making it highly effective for precise shot placement at extended ranges and for light to medium game.
