Key Features
Mark V Action
The Weatherby Mark V action features a 9-lug bolt design (for standard calibers) providing a short 54-degree bolt throw. This design facilitates rapid cycling while maintaining substantial lockup strength, ensuring consistent and reliable performance under varied conditions. The integral recoil lug enhances structural integrity, mitigating receiver flex and contributing to repeatable accuracy.
Precision Barrel
This model incorporates a 22-inch fluted barrel, optimized for weight reduction and efficient heat dissipation during sustained fire. The barrel is crafted from a chromoly steel blank, ensuring long-term durability and consistent bore concentricity. A threaded muzzle (1/2-28 UNEF) allows for direct integration of muzzle devices or suppressors, enhancing operational versatility. The .240 Weatherby Magnum chambering is known for its high velocity and flat trajectory, making it an effective long-range cartridge.
Stock Design & Materials
The BC Guide utilizes a Peak 44 BlackCarbon composite stock. This carbon fiber construction significantly reduces overall rifle weight without compromising structural rigidity or impact resistance. The stock’s ergonomic profile ensures a secure and comfortable grip, facilitating stable shooting positions in diverse field scenarios. Its inherent material properties resist environmental degradation from moisture and temperature fluctuations.
Protective Finishes
The receiver and barrel are treated with a Graphite Black Cerakote finish. This advanced ceramic-based coating provides superior resistance to abrasion, corrosion, and chemical exposure, crucial for maintaining weapon integrity in harsh weather and demanding use conditions. The matte finish also reduces glare, which is advantageous in tactical and hunting applications.
Trigger System
The rifle is equipped with an adjustable Mark V trigger. This system allows the operator to fine-tune the pull weight, facilitating a crisp, predictable break that is essential for precision shot placement.
