Weatherby Mark V Backcountry

The rifle weighs 5.1 lbs, making it exceptionally light for a bolt-action rifle. This weight reduction is achieved through the use of a titanium action and a carbon fiber stock, which significantly reduces fatigue during long, high-elevation hunts.

The rifle comes with integrated Spartan Precision adapters, which are designed specifically for Spartan’s modular bipod and tripod systems. This mounting system is ideal for backcountry hunters because it keeps the rifle profile sleek and minimizes added weight.

While lightweight rifles typically have more felt recoil, this model includes the Accubrake ST and a 3DHex recoil reduction pad to mitigate that kick. These features work together to keep the rifle controllable, allowing for faster follow-up shots without excessive muzzle jump.

The Cerakote finish provides a high level of corrosion resistance, making it an excellent choice for harsh, unpredictable mountain weather. It acts as a durable barrier against rust and wear, ensuring the metal components remain protected even when exposed to moisture.

Yes, the rifle is equipped with a TriggerTech zero-creep adjustable trigger. This allows you to fine-tune the pull weight to your specific shooting style, ensuring a crisp, consistent break that helps with accuracy.

A 24-inch barrel is standard for the 6.5 Creedmoor chambering in this platform, offering a good balance between velocity and maneuverability. It provides enough length to maximize the cartridge's ballistic potential while remaining compact enough for navigating dense brush or rocky terrain.
