Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 6.5×300 Wby Mag

The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 in 6.5×300 Weatherby Mag is a purpose-built, lightweight bolt-action rifle designed for long-range backcountry hunting and precision shooting at the range. Its construction focuses on reducing carried weight while retaining magnum-level ballistics and field reliability. Shooters will find it suitable for extended hunts and precision work where weight and performance both matter.

The rifle is built on Weatherby’s Mark V steel action with a fluted, contoured barrel and an Accubrake ST muzzle brake blended to the profile of the muzzle. The Peak 44 Blacktooth carbon fiber stock uses a brown and green sponge pattern over exposed carbon fiber and includes Weatherby’s 3DHEX recoil pad to smooth the recoil impulse. The bolt features pronounced spiral fluting and a lightweight aluminum extended, skeletonized knob for reduced weight and smooth operation.
