Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 308 Winchester Rifle

The Weatherby Mark V Backcountry 2.0 represents the latest iteration of the acclaimed Backcountry line, advancing the proven steel Weatherby Mark V action with meaningful refinements. The carbon fiber Peak 44 Blacktooth stock stands out as the primary enhancement, with the lightest configurations weighing under 20 ounces. A 3DHEX recoil pad is integrated into the design, incorporating a system of interlocking voids that progressively collapse during recoil to extend the recoil impulse duration and reduce the sharp kick associated with magnum chamberings. The fluted barrel incorporates Weatherby’s Accubrake ST, while the bolt body features more pronounced spiral fluting that reduces weight and decreases bearing surface in the action, contributing to smoother operation. The bolt handle is threaded and fitted with a lightweight aluminum extended and skeletonized knob. Engineered to achieve minimal weight while chambered in 308 Winchester, the Backcountry 2.0 carries forward the legacy of the Backcountry line.
