Overview
The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry TI2 in 6.5-300 Weatherby Magnum, configured for left-hand shooters, represents a specialized high-performance bolt action rifle engineered for demanding environments. This platform integrates advanced materials and precision manufacturing to deliver a lightweight, robust, and accurate system for extended field operations and mountainous terrain.
Key Features
Titanium Mark V Action
The core of the Backcountry TI2 is its Mark V titanium action. This construction significantly reduces overall rifle weight without compromising structural integrity or receiver rigidity. The 9-lug design ensures a secure, consistent lockup, critical for accuracy and safe operation with magnum cartridges. The titanium material provides superior corrosion resistance, an essential attribute for severe weather conditions encountered in backcountry hunting.
Peak 44 Blacktooth Carbon Fiber Stock
KFF Defense specifies the integration of the Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock. This component is specifically designed to minimize mass while maximizing structural rigidity and dampening vibration. Its lightweight composition contributes directly to the rifle’s portability, mitigating fatigue during long treks. The stock is pillar bedded to the action, optimizing the interface for consistent accuracy.
Fluted Stainless Steel Barrel with Accubrake ST
The rifle features a 26-inch fluted stainless steel barrel, which reduces weight and enhances heat dissipation during extended firing sequences. The barrel is threaded and fitted with a Weatherby Accubrake ST, engineered to significantly mitigate recoil impulse, improving shooter comfort and allowing for faster target reacquisition. The barrel and muzzle device are finished with Patriot Brown Cerakote for enhanced durability and environmental protection.
TriggerTech Mark V Trigger
A TriggerTech Mark V trigger is installed, providing a crisp, zero-creep break. This precision trigger is externally adjustable, allowing the operator to fine-tune pull weight for optimal shot placement. This feature is crucial for maintaining accuracy under varied field conditions and across different shooting disciplines.
Left-Hand Specific Configuration
This model is purpose-built for left-handed shooters, featuring a left-hand bolt and action. This ensures ergonomic operation and efficient manipulation for the intended user, enhancing safety and operational fluency in the field.
