The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 chambered in .240 Weatherby Magnum is engineered for discerning hunters requiring a lightweight, high-performance rifle capable of sustained precision in demanding environments. This platform integrates advanced materials and precision manufacturing to deliver consistent accuracy and uncompromised reliability across varied operational parameters. It represents a refined evolution of the Mark V action, optimized for weight reduction without compromising structural integrity or shot-to-shot consistency.
Key Features
Lightweight Carbon Fiber Construction
The rifle incorporates a Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock, substantially reducing overall system weight while maintaining rigidity. This composite structure mitigates felt recoil and provides a stable shooting platform, critical for shot placement in backcountry scenarios.
Mark V Action Reliability
Featuring Weatherby’s legendary Mark V 9-lug action, known for its robust construction and exceptional strength. This design provides controlled feed and extraction, ensuring reliable cycling under adverse conditions. The fluted bolt body further reduces friction and weight, promoting smooth operation.
Precision Barrel System
A fluted, contour barrel, finished with Patriot Brown Cerakote for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance, ensures consistent thermal management during extended firing sequences. The barrel is factory-threaded (1/2″-28 UNEF) and equipped with an Accubrake ST muzzle brake, significantly reducing recoil impulse to optimize follow-up shot acquisition. This system is backed by Weatherby’s SUB-MOA accuracy guarantee at 100 yards, assuring precision performance.
Adjustable TriggerTech Trigger
Equipped with a TriggerTech Mark V trigger, this unit provides a crisp, clean break with minimal overtravel. The user-adjustable pull weight facilitates fine-tuning for individual shooter preference, enhancing control and contributing to improved shot execution.
Corrosion Resistance
All external steel components receive a Patriot Brown Cerakote finish. This advanced ceramic-based coating provides superior resistance to abrasion, corrosion, and chemical exposure, ensuring the rifle’s longevity and operational integrity in harsh outdoor conditions.
