Weatherby Mark V BC Guide 6.5-300 Weatherby Bolt Action Rifle
The Weatherby Mark V BC Guide is engineered for performance in austere environments. Chambered in the potent 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum, this rifle integrates the robust Mark V action with a precision barrel and a lightweight, durable stock system, optimized for long-range engagements and rigorous field utility. This platform is designed for shooters who require consistent accuracy and reliability under varied operational demands, from competitive long-range applications to demanding hunting expeditions.
Key Features
Precision Engineering
The rifle features Weatherby’s renowned Mark V bolt action, known for its nine-lug (six-lug for magnum calibers like this) design, ensuring robust lock-up and consistent chambering. The 26-inch barrel is precision-machined, contributing to repeatable sub-MOA performance often associated with the Mark V line. The trigger system is factory-tuned for a clean, crisp break, promoting precision shot placement.
Optimized Durability
The “BC Guide” designation reflects a design focus on resilience and reduced weight. The stock is typically a carbon fiber composite, providing a high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to environmental factors without compromising rigidity. Metal components often feature a durable, corrosion-resistant finish (e.g., Cerakote), mitigating wear and environmental degradation in harsh conditions. The fluted barrel design contributes to reduced weight and increased surface area for thermal dissipation during extended firing sequences.
Field Utility and Ergonomics
Designed for dynamic field use, the rifle’s balance and reduced overall weight improve handling and reduce fatigue during extended carry. The stock geometry is optimized for stable shooting positions, whether from a bipod, bag, or improvised support. The integration of high-performance components ensures the rifle maintains its operational integrity across a spectrum of temperatures and precipitation.
