Key Features
Mark V Action Integration
The core of this rifle is the Weatherby Mark V 9-lug bolt action, renowned for its exceptional strength, smooth operation, and rapid lock time. This robust action provides a secure and reliable foundation, crucial for managing the intense pressures generated by the .338 Weatherby RPM cartridge, ensuring consistent ignition and operational integrity under varied conditions.
Precision Barrel Configuration
Featuring a 24-inch fluted stainless steel barrel, the Accumark mitigates weight and enhances cooling properties during sustained firing sequences. The fluting also increases surface area for heat dissipation, contributing to barrel longevity and shot-to-shot consistency. A recessed target crown protects the rifling, preserving critical accuracy potential.
Optimized Stock System
The rifle is equipped with a Monte Carlo composite stock, constructed from a blend of Kevlar and fiberglass, providing an optimal balance of stiffness and lightweight durability. This stock incorporates an aluminum pillar bedding system, which ensures the receiver is precisely seated and free from stress, preventing any detrimental flex that could compromise accuracy. The design facilitates consistent shooter interface and recoil management.
Advanced Trigger Mechanism
The Mark V Accumark utilizes Weatherby’s LXX Adjustable Trigger. This precision-machined trigger provides a crisp, clean break with minimal overtravel, allowing for precise shot placement. It is user-adjustable, enabling optimization to individual shooter preference while maintaining a safe and reliable operating threshold.
Caliber Performance
