Key Features
Mark V Action System
The heart of this rifle is the legendary Weatherby Mark V action, featuring a robust 9-lug bolt (standard for magnum calibers). This action is precision-machined for exceptional strength and reliability, ensuring secure lock-up and consistent ignition. The 54-degree bolt throw allows for rapid cycling and provides ample clearance for large optics, optimizing the shooter’s operational efficiency. An integral recoil lug enhances structural integrity, mitigating stress on the receiver and contributing to long-term accuracy.
Carbon Fiber Barrel & Stock
The Mark V BC Carbon integrates a fluted, carbon fiber-wrapped barrel, meticulously crafted to mitigate overall weight while maintaining crucial rigidity and thermal stability. This construction method minimizes barrel harmonics for consistent shot-to-shot performance and extends the barrel’s useful life in the field. The rifle features a high-performance carbon fiber composite stock, such as the Peak 44 Blacktooth, which provides an exceptionally rigid and lightweight platform. This stock’s ergonomic design optimizes shooter interface, promoting a repeatable cheek weld and efficient recoil management for enhanced precision.
LXX Trigger System
Equipped with Weatherby’s adjustable LXX Trigger, this rifle offers a crisp, predictable break. The trigger mechanism is designed for precise pull weight adjustments, allowing the shooter to fine-tune the interface for optimal shot placement, crucial for long-range engagements.
Operational Ergonomics and Precision
The Mark V BC Carbon is engineered for enhanced portability without sacrificing downrange accuracy. Its balanced design and reduced weight minimize fatigue during carry, while the rigid carbon fiber components contribute directly to its precision capabilities. This rifle is engineered for exceptional precision, backed by Weatherby’s Sub-MOA guarantee using premium ammunition, affirming its capability to perform to stringent accuracy standards.
