The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 is engineered for precision and lightweight performance, making it ideal for demanding hunting and shooting environments. Built on the proven Weatherby Mark V action, this rifle features a super thin, lightweight fluted barrel that is contoured at either a #1 MOD or #2 MOD, depending on the chambering. The 26-inch barrel provides excellent accuracy and velocity, while the bolt body’s pronounced spiral fluting reduces weight and enhances smooth cycling.
The rifle’s standout feature is the carbon fiber Peak 44 Blacktooth stock, which weighs less than 20 ounces, significantly reducing the overall weight of the firearm to just over 5 pounds in standard configuration and 5.4 pounds in magnum chamberings. The stock’s brown and green pattern complements the dark green and brown Cerakote finish on the action and barrel, offering both durability and camouflage.
Equipped with the innovative second-generation 3DHEX recoil pad, the Backcountry 2.0 effectively reduces felt recoil through interlocking voids that collapse during firing, providing a smoother shooting experience. The threaded bolt handle with a lightweight, skeletonized aluminum knob ensures quick operation, while the highly effective Accubrake ST muzzle brake with 30 ports helps tame recoil, especially with powerful magnum loads.
Designed for reliability and performance, this rifle boasts a 3-round capacity, right-hand action, and is chambered in the formidable 300 Weatherby Magnum cartridge. Its advanced features and lightweight design make it a top choice for serious hunters and shooters seeking a combination of power, accuracy, and portability.
