Overview
The Weatherby Mark V BC Guide Ti in 6.5 Creedmoor is purpose-built for extreme back-country environments, prioritizing minimized weight without compromising structural integrity or precision. This rifle integrates Weatherby’s renowned Mark V action with advanced materials, delivering a robust and highly accurate platform for demanding hunters and competitive shooters who require a capable instrument for rigorous field conditions.
Key Features
Lightweight Titanium Mark V Action
The core of the BC Guide Ti is the titanium Mark V bolt action receiver. This material selection significantly reduces overall rifle weight compared to traditional steel actions, mitigating user fatigue during extended treks while maintaining the legendary strength and reliability synonymous with the Mark V system. The nine-lug bolt design ensures maximum lock-up security and smooth, consistent cycling, even under adverse conditions.
Precision Barrel System
Equipped with a 22-inch fluted barrel, this rifle is optimized for weight reduction and rapid cooling characteristics. The barrel profile is engineered to maintain rigidity, directly contributing to consistent shot placement. The 6.5 Creedmoor chambering is known for its ballistic efficiency and low recoil, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of medium to large game, offering flat trajectories and effective terminal performance.
Carbon Fiber Stock Integration
The rifle incorporates a lightweight carbon fiber stock, further enhancing its back-country utility. This advanced composite material provides a superior strength-to-weight ratio, effectively dampening recoil and resisting environmental extremes. The ergonomic design ensures a stable and comfortable shooting platform across varied field conditions, promoting consistent performance.
Adjustable LXX Trigger
Precision is further augmented by Weatherby’s user-adjustable LXX Trigger. This crisp, creep-free trigger mechanism allows for fine-tuning pull weight, enabling precise shot execution crucial for critical long-range engagements and maintaining consistent shot mechanics.
Guaranteed Performance
The Weatherby Mark V BC Guide Ti is backed by the manufacturer’s guarantee of sub-MOA accuracy, ensuring it will shoot a 3-shot group of .99-inch or less at 100 yards when used with Weatherby or other premium ammunition. This commitment to precision underscores its capability as a high-performance hunting and shooting instrument.
